Information
Venice Beach, Los Angeles which receives millions of visitors a year, has been labeled as "a cultural hub known for its eccentricities" as well as a "global tourist destination. With those millions of people how does the law enforcement deal with such large crowds and narrow streets? The men and women of the Los Angeles Police Department's Bicycle Coordination Unit (BCU) take the challenging task head on! Tasked with several duties such as; patrol, rapid responses, gang suppression, narcotics enforcement, and much more! The BCU takes care of them all!
In this vibrant and exciting environment you will be roleplaying as a police officer of the Bicycle Coordination Unit or BCU for short! You are assigned specifically to the West Bureau, Pacific Division, BCU - 14 (Unit - 14) and are highly trained to accomplish any challenging task that may come across on the streets of Venice Beach! You may think riding a bike around the streets of one of the nicest beaches on the West Coast is a relaxing and laid back task. However, maneuvering through crowds on a hot summer day, all the while attempting to enforce the law is anything but relaxing!

Rules & Guidelines
Besides following and obeying the rules set by Roleplay Nation, I do have some specific rules that are quite simple I think!
RESPECT - Self explanatory, please do keep in mind of others. Being respectful and courteous is a must and when leaving the roleplay please do drop a message.
GRAMMAR - When typing any sort of text please do use proper grammar and English. I'm not an English teacher and neither do I plan to be but please do have the proper grammar when typing up a roleplay related text!
REALISM - Be reasonable. Don't have your character be some god-like character who can roam the streets shooting people at the random and now have any sort of consequence. A good balanced character should suffice so please do not be that "guy". Anime/animated/drawing pictures are not permitted. Use a picture that is at least some what modern!
DRAMA - No drama outside of the roleplay please and keep it IC!
OTHER - I do not require a lengthy paragraph for every roleplay text, just keep it minimal that allows others to roleplay off of it!
