Mooseknuckler Cycling Alliance

I just want to say I’m proud. I’m proud that my little sis is the newest Mooseknuckler out there. (more…)

Due to certain misunderstandings, I’m posting this so that everyone knows. Sunday rides will be at 2 p.m. unless otherwise posted prior to Saturday evening. I will also make sure that what type of ride we are doing is posted so you don’t show up to a road ride rocking the knobbies. Just a little info that may be useful.

Sorry Ike, we would have loved your company…

Senators Obama and McCain:

We were reading the other day about the tobacco legislation you both support that is making it’s way through Congress. The bill would give the federal government the authority to regulate tobacco. And it would ban flavored cigarettes - like strawberry and chocolate. Flavoring makes tobacco smoke more attractive - especially to young people. So, we agree - flavoring should be banned from cigarettes. Here’s the curious thing, though. Under the bill, all flavorings would be banned. Except for menthol. Thank You for Smoking. (more…)

Legendary journalist Bill Moyers electrified an audience of more than 3,500 in Minneapolis this morning calling the media reform movement “the most significant citizens’ movement to emerge in this new century.”

Watch Moyers’ speech now:

Moyers said that the work of activists like you has “challenged the stranglehold of mega-media corporations over our press” and fostered “alternative and independent sources of news and information that people can trust.”

“You’re not alone, and you know what we need to know,” he told the audience. “So it’s up to you to tell the truth about this country we love. … It’s up to you to remind us that democracy only works when ordinary people claim it as their own.”
