Reclaim the Ride

Start: Friday, June 11, 2021 3:00 PM

Bikes can be a source of joy for people of all ages, the core of a community, and a critical tool for work. But NYC cops, especially the SRG, target, ticket, and harass bike riders, seize their bikes, and even use bikes as weapons against citizens. We are riding in protest against the NYPD's stealing the joy and necessity of biking from riders and workers, especially those of color. We have the following demands for the city council:

  1. Disband the Strategic Response Group
  2. Redistribute their bikes
  3. No new bike contracts, no new bike cops
  4. End harassment of people/workers on bikes
  5. Re-invest in and refund communities
