I like the idea of biking on city streets. Except the cars are too fast and the trucks are too big. Few avenues have dedicated bikes lanes, and even there taxis are invariably parked in my way. And oh the dangers: 225 NYC bikers were killed between 1996 and 2005. No wonder I often feel like the only biker on Second Avenue who's not delivering pizza or Chinese.
This is not true closer to Central Park. Spandex-laden doctors with shimmering racing bikes seem to metasticize out of nowhere. It's as if there were secret bicycle bat caves along Fifth Avenue, spewing forth these men who like to shout "Hands on bars, please" and "Approaching on your right" with enough super-hero gusto that you almost hope they miss a curve and fly right into the Harlem Meer.

thanks for info
The New York City Community election on Sept 15th and this time also we have ALAN J GERSON from Democrat standing from and for the people.Having done many reform works(www.gerson2009.com), I think he should continue for the peple as the best council member.
Do vote for him for a growing Newyork.
gerson has unmatched qualities
voting for Mr.Gleason is a really bad idea because,whatever he claimed i fake,he said that he was a fire fighter for 10 years,but actually he worked only for three years and was always on leave,plz think .do you really want to vote for this faker who always ran out of his job?.if you do he will again run from his job leaving our city in a miserable condition.
vote for gerson.
