#1 A pity a small group of sub humans can destroy an activity for civilised people. Stamping down on this

#2 "and the activity has been suspended indefinitely, city officials said". Due lack of bikes.
When asked what the missing bikes looked like, the spokeswoman said "Bikes...they look like bikes".
Just as an aside, if a private organization was to have an event such as this, they would be required to hire cops to provide security. But being as it's the city, not so much.
