Whose streets? Our Streets? Environmental group faces legal battle over Critical Mass

by Liz Elliott and Shay Sanchez (info [at] cicle.org)
The future of Critical Mass in New York City remains uncertain, as environmental group TIME’S UP! is forced to foot the bill for an impending court battle.
As a landmark court case threatens to shut down New York’s popular Critical Mass ride, and forces one organization to take the blame, we take a look at the last year of controversy surrounding the ride and at the case brought against TIME’S UP, a pro bike environmental group caught in the middle. This is a case that not only threatens the continuation of the ride itself, but also New Yorker’s First Amendment rights to free speech and free assembly due to the case’s far reaching implications.
