We were up near the front. We had 9 in our crew, including 4 first timers. The triple bridge thing was awesome! Everyone loved that. I thought the mass was pretty uneventful, but it's often like that near the front. The drivers don't get that pissed until they have been waiting a while. I will say this mass was way too fast. Our newbies, and even me were getting tired (I commute on bike too, so I'm in shape). And because it was fast we had significant amounts of cars driving with the mass, which was not good.
We were somewhere in Lincoln Park, I think near halsted and wrightwood ave when I saw the tail end of the only significant incident I saw. Basically there is some douchebag in a white BMW SUV backing away from the mass. As we get there two bike cops jumped off their bikes and another is yelling at the douche really good. I thought the one cop was going to drag his ass out of his SUV. The driver looked like some yuppie guy. We just kept rolling. I don't know what happened after that, but I suspect the mass got split up. We went NW on lincoln from halsted. My group pulled off for a minute to prepare refreshments. all of a sudden the mass was gone. I suspect there should have been 1-2 miles of mass behind us, but it did not make it. Perhaps people just split it up, or perhaps people were gawking at the cops and that bmw and it got split. Anyway, that was the end of our mass. We saw probably a couple hundred at a 7 eleven up lincoln a bit. We never made it to the beach or anything. Kind of short, but a good one.
