And I wish that Americans would realize that there should be more massive protests if the system isn't setup or working correctly. I'm not saying that bike riding should make 1 million people take to the streets, but they protest all the time in other countries and it can be effective.

And 72 hours is excessive for people that didn't have charges brought against them with evidence.
72 hours does seem excessive with no charges filed. All they did was ride a bicycle on the shoulder?

I would ride a bike to work every day, but with the heat and no showers at work, it's not an option. That said, I ride home every day from work along a 4 lane highway with a small shoulder and a 65 mph speed limit. The noise is awful. (I'm dropped off with my bike every morning).
