    I reported it while TE was down.

    Report it as a hate group.

    I think the best thing to do when reporting it besides the "radio button" choices there's an option below to say why you're flagging it.

    Writing a note gets an automated response that they'll "look into it and might get back to you."

    Just hitting the button does not. Tag this site as offensive and say why!

    Done and done.

    Thee agenda of this group is to incite (or at least motivate) violence towards cyclists.

    No good can come of this.

    I reported it with a comment. Truthfully, that frightens me. Like you said, szsz- the agenda is to incite violence and that's just terrifying...

    Done and done too. I also asked my Facebook peeps to support me and report the page if they were so inclined. Thanks for the heads up.

    Yeah, while TE was down a friend posted it on her page and I then posted it on mine, and reported it and gave a little diatribe why I was reporting it. Though I never got an automated response, at least that I noticed anyway. But it was a really frightening idea, inciting violence like that. I sure hope they take it down. My friends said - you should read some of the comments. But I've learned that lesson the hard way, so I didn't read them. I have a good idea of the hateful things and I just didn't need to see them.

    I was just having a look at some of the comments on that page. Wow those people aren't the brightest bulbs in the chandelier! Here's just two of the comments...notice the superior spelling ablilities:

    "They allways on the dam ROAD!!!!!!"

    "Most of them don't even use the bike lane on the left, they need to kick them off the road alltogather"

    "na its better when they do decide to ride on the rode ..."

    And if you then read the comments on there from other cyclists they're actually written in proper English, spelling and everything! Coincidence? I think not!

    I reported it and then noticed a friend and fellow cyclist is a member. .. unless he had to join to make a comment???

    ETA: yes that does appear to be the case.
