Yesterday was AMAZING! 🚴‍♀️ An estimated 100k cyclists from 200 cities road a Memorial Bike Ride to honor Alex Pretti.

Why? Because Alex was an avid cyclist. 🥹

I'll admit this had my tear ducts gushing for a full 5 minutes.

Fascists vs Cyclists. 🚴‍♀️

I cannot imagine the devastation this family is experiencing today. This statement is powerful and must be read.

They sing: “This is for our neighbors who are locked inside, together we will abolish ICE.”
