NOT ON THE CRITICAL MASS. I was with a friend going out from a show, he was walking and I was in my bike talking, I just came to the sidewalk like playing around for a sec. and the police come; stop me, ask me for identification, they call a to check my name, maybe because I am not us citizen... ask me some questions, them I had to wait for 20 minutes, and at the the end they put me a ticket for "Operating bike on the sidewalk". I am from south america, I am not familiar with the laws here, the say I have to go by 3 of June to court, somebody have any sugestions??? (sorry for my bad english)
