Hope everyone is enjoying Pedalpalooza. I just wanted to forward on a note regarding the Kickoff Parade last night.
When I got home from the ride I was greeted with a voice mail and an email from a women who was in Irving Park with her dog when the ride rolled up (we ended at Irving and hung out before everyone dispersed):
thanks for ending your ride in the Irvington dog park, during dog hours, leaving garbage, destroying grass and telling me to fuck off when i asked nicely “what time your event was ending” so me and my neighbors could share the in the restrictive summer dog hours. With all the rain we all need some out side time. Please speak with your large groups your creating about shared space.

Just a reminder to be kind to others as it reflects on the entire Pedalpalooza event. Thanks!
