 bicycles-will travel the length of the Peninsula, starting from points 
 north and south, to symbolize the unity of all of our local communities in 
 saying, "Troops out now!"\n\nDecorate your vehicle with signs and black

 stand together in trying to end the disastrous occupation of Iraq.\n\nWe

 brought upon the indigenous population as a result of colonialism, a 
 devastation that is being repeated in Iraq today.\n\nRoute maps,

 procession in progress are available at
