gogo@ Posted January 3, 2013 Posted January 3, 2013 Notify/get permission from traffic authorities for a mass ride. Get an escort, cops & think bike. It should be visible, draw public attention and be as inclusive as possible. Everyone of us has been touched by road carnage - runners, pedestrians, cyclists, motorists. Do it in Burry's name, but for us all.Make sure your local paper knows about it. Have some kind of petition with points of action that you want to see implemented, like officers dealing with moving violations not just ticketing. Hand this over to local authorities - cops, traffic cops, mayor, the lot.Everyone do this at the same time, same day, wherever you are. Let's see how much attention that will draw - but attention with a purpose, which means a plan and not just a once-off expression of anger.Anyone from Grahamstown joining, contact me please. Let's see if we can get involved. RooiWillie and Velouria 2

dafo Posted January 3, 2013 Posted January 3, 2013 Hi fellow hubbers, after reading what you guys want to do for Burry. I also have an suggestion: Why don't we create a wristband or something simillar, for a REAL HERO and Idol to alot of us. And in that way there can be money generated for a good cause but more important when you see a red and white wristband, just another suggestion, you will immediatly know there is type of unity/connection between you and the stranger that also wear the same band as you.R.I.P Burry and my condolences to his family.
