Read quite a bit, but wanted to make the comment that the people against this are basing a lot of their arguments on the assumption that Memorial Drive is a major road. Yes it is during the week, but on Sundays it has on average 850 cars/hour. It can easily handle closing down 2 lanes. The event was meant to promote people getting out of the car and hopping on a bike or walking. I don't understand why this is a less valid reason than a festival?
