This was a Critical Mass event, which is why the bicyclists are taking up all of the street as a way to reclaim the streets and protest the lack of safety for riders under usual conditions. It’s not legal, but protests are never useful if they’re fully legal now, are they.
So, that’s why I used the adjective “confounded,” b/c it’s not like folks are stupid, just obviously completely unfamiliar.
I was referring to a second group in the thread who can’t understand how someone else couldn’t instantly figure out what was going on.
Maybe I should have started with ‘Also ITT…’
