Adams is trying to get some bike infrastructure removed apparently too 

Whole thing is off to me

yet the fixies continue to ride rampant through crowded crosswalks

You really need to be pedaling the whole time to get up to top speed, still my favorite way to get around. 

4th of July CitiBike is a magical moment.

Scared me with the wording.. thought they're taking them away wholesale. 3mph less ain't that bad is it.. tho I'm not happy about it

Prediction: someone will find and share a hack, next thing you know 16 mph…

Eric Adam's can't keep getting away with it

Still proabably the best way to get around the city

Frequently incoherent. Hater. Not interesting. Very boring.

…but there are speed limits for cars, right?

15mph isn’t THAT bad

They'll do this but won't even think about doing anything similar with cars in cities 🙄
