kudos to everyone who rode and journalist Kevin jogging alongside riders to get their perspectives

Well, not exactly downtown, but they interview the awesome gentleman who was handing out all the yellow vests:

I found this video if someone has the time to take a count. Almost everyone in the ride comes past starting around 35:00

(101) Live: Alex Pretti Memorial Bike Ride | Minneapolis, Minnesota - YouTube

This really was a bright spot in my day. Thanks for making this, super awesome person/people who made this!!!

Though I was standing near the megaphone I couldn't hear very well, and I would like to know what they had to say ❤️

I rarely ever ride in the winter or do group rides. I'm massively impressed with how well this went considering how quickly you put it together and that the number of riders probably far exceeded your expectations.

All I had to do was show up and bike in the cold. I know others did so much more and I'm appreciative of that

It was very sad biking past the two memorials, but very uplifting to see the turnout, the supporters on sidewalks and houses, and solidarity of our community.

Well done by everyone.

Thousands rode today past the murder sites of two Minnesota heroes who were defending their meighbors. We rode from Whittier to the VA. Fuck ICE.

Fuck ice !!

Crosspost from my earlier effort. I'm organizing a small watch/search group around Whipple if anyone is interested, was told to xpost here

layer up babes, we’re riding for grief and justice

So for starters I acknowledge that I don’t have any evidence verifying the claims made in this video. But I know, and I imagine many of you all also know, the trails and park land surrounding fort snelling and the whipple building very well. and it’s not hard to imagine agents driving vehicles into the minnehaha dog park, or cold water spring or the area near the Thomas savage visitor center and then driving down some of the hiking trails and dumping people out on foot. It would be a quick drive back to whipple for the agents but for

someone dropped off on foot it would take probably an hour at least to walk out, that is if they even knew where they were going. even longer if they take them further out onto to pike island. I haven’t rode down there in over a month, has anyone been there recently and seen evidence of motor vehicle traffic on the trails?
