2002 Time's-Up!, Folds-Up Ride http://www.times-up.org/

Folders' Day Bicycle Ride & Festival for folding bicycles (and the folding curious).
The ride began from New York City's Cooper Union and traveled about ten miles following a route that led, among other places, over the Manhattan and Brooklyn Bridges ending in Manhattan (at Thompson & Broome Streets) where the festival took place. Dahon, Swift, Bike Friday, Brompton, Strida, Microbike, Raleigh and a separable Moulton Spaceframe were among the brands of folding bicycles that were represented at this fun event. http://www.times-up.org/
