As cool as this video was, this looked absurbly dangerous! And i saw alot of youthful inner-city kids participating as well. This is only a growing culture and LAPD needs to stop these groups at first site. Eventually an innocient driver is gonna hit one of those gangbanger millennials on accident.

Whatever. It's a lot healthier and more environmentally friendly than tricking out an old hooptie, and of all the hobbies a kid could be pursuing, zany bike riding is a relatively benign timesuck even if it's a bit risky compared to, say, ballroom dance. There are much worse ways for an adrenaline junkie teen to get their fix.

Out of your post the only words I understood were the definite articles, a few adjectives and verbs, the prepositions... Not very many gerunds.

There are rides called Critical Mass where they block the road and slow down cars intentionally but I've never seen one in real life.

NYC used to have an issue similar to this but everyone was on motorized bikes like dirt bikes and ATV. They call themselves Hollywood Stuntz. It culminated with this major incident

LOL but I guess this is SoCal, and you all have to stay green, and get your exercise.

Not as bad as the 12 O'Clock Boys in Baltimore. There is no law there
