Several Important Matters Acted Upon Last
Might.
Several important matters were discussed at
Q meeting of the Associated Cycling Clubs of
Long Island. held at Bader's, on the Coney
Island cycle path, last night. Among them was
one protesting against the proposed ordi.
nance now before the Common Council.
which, II adopted, will compel wheel
men to dismount and wait for cars
to pass at certain street crossings, principally at
Bedford avenue and Fulton street. It was
argued that the ordinance is illegal. inasmuch
as 1t is an infringement upon the rights Of
cyclists as defined by tho Liberty bill, which
classes bicycles as vehicles.
The organization will also bring its influence
to bear upon the property owners living
near tho new Harway avenue bridge,
which, when finished. will connect Eigh.
teenth avenue with Coney Island. The
Legislature has appropriated $25. 900 for the
building OF this bridge, but no provision has
been made for suitable approaches. Wheelmen
claim that unless the property owners subscribe
", 900 the Coney Island end OF the bridge will
end In a marsh. subscription books have been
open for six weeks, but only $2o has 30 far been
