Vélorution Paris

This video is from what appears to be a critical mass bicycle ride in Paris France(September 22, 2006).

It appears that several call put in a paddy wagon.

At the end of the video the group is chanting something. Please comment what you think they are saying(English translation). Thanks.

Also, what makes this video interesting is that variety and diversity of bicycles and other vehicles of the participants, such as inline skaters, and bicycles with electric assist(e-bikes). And as usual, the French again show their flair for fashion, even at bicycle rides, with colorfully desgiged flags, clothing, and bicycles.



Video Description:
"Manif à vélo qu'on a fini tard la nuit pour récupérer nos vélos qu'étaient emprisonnés. Amitiés à tous les vélorutionnaires."(French)
"Manif with bicycle which one finished late the night to recover our bicycles that were imprisoned. Friendships with all vélorutionnaires."(English translation)

    Well, I'm not sure but it looks like some bikes have been taken by the cops and these people are in that bus because they are going to the place where their bikes are kept to get them back.
