They are going to allow those powered bikes in the bike lanes now. Great. Try getting out of the way of one of those things when you're crossing the street.
Best story I have read on bikes in NYC.
Don't let this happen to your city. Lefty wacko-environmentalists closed half of Times Square to traffic, did the same to Herald Square, and put bike lanes all over the place. Then they instituted "congestion pricing." They CAUSED the congestion in Midtown. They should pay whatever is necessary out of their own pockets!
