This is a weird one. The environmentally friendly Democrats are not allowing bikes at the Democratic National Convention, claiming that they are too much of a security risk.
"Despite the efforts of Bikes Belong to bring 1,000 free "rental" bicycles to Denver for the Democratic National Convention this month, there will be no bike parking at either the Pepsi Center or Invesco Field during the events. The Secret Service has declared that bicycles are a security risk bringing back images of the police crackdown on NYC Critical Mass in August of 2004."
Because if I wanted to cause mass hysteria, I wouldn't use a bomb, a machine gun or an airplane. I'd use a bike.
