Commuting, recreation, sport. All examples of ways bicycles can be used. From getting you around town or to work. A group of friends and family meeting up for a weekend ride. Challenging yourself and competitors on the local track or trail.

       Not listed above however, is violence. Police have been seen using their bikes as weapons against peaceful protesters and innocent civilians. Rather than use the bikes given to them as tools to protect, serve, and strengthen the community, they have chosen to cause harm and divide.

       This can no longer be tolerated. Bike manufacturers need to stop supplying police with their products if they cannot use them in a positive way. It hurts the people and fractures the community of all races and genders that we love.
