  1. =v= The _New_York_Times_ has a story about the impending release
    of the bicycles impounded during the week of the RNC:

    "Police Allow the Return of Bicycles From Rallies"
    http://www.nytimes.com/2004/09/18/nyregion/18bike.html

    The headline is misleading. Credit for return of the bicycles
    belongs to Norm Siegel of the NYCLU and to the legal teams at
    Time's Up! and the National Lawyers Guild for organizing bikers.
    Props also to the bicycle mechanic collective at the Time's Up!
    space, who put together bikes for us to ride while ours are
    being held.

    =v= The NYPD's tactics are finally getting at least a smidgen of
    the scrutiny they deserve:

    City Arrest Tactics, Used on Protesters, Face Test in Court
    http://www.nytimes.com/2004/09/17/nyregion/17detain.html

    =v= Critical Mass is coming up this Friday. Brooklyn's CM was
    mellow and included a visit to the bikes being held as political
    prisoners in Greenpoint. If you care about CM in NYC, there's
    an open forum happening this Monday. Email me or surf Indymedia
    for details.
