[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love it and am sad to see it go. I either leave town on Memorial Day weekend or choose not to drive if I stay in town.[/quote]

This is why people talk about "privilege." You realize lots of people don't have those options, right? [/quote]

Rolling Thunder isn't any more disruptive for locals than any other event that brings in a lot of people. Cherry Blossom season, Marine Corp Marathon, Rock n Roll Marathon, and 4th of July are some events off the top of my head that I find more disruptive than Rolling Thunder. Disruptions are just part of daily life here. Accusing someone of not recognizing their privilege really doesn't make sense in this context. [/quote]

It’s totally different. It’s all weekend and disrupts traffic. Marathons block some streets for a few hours. Cherry blossoms and July 4 are lots of extra walkers. Yes, they all bring crowds, but not crowds that block traffic all over the place. [/quote]

its all weekend?  i thought the motorcycle ride was only on sunday afternoon.[/quote]
