— This story is from my recent trip to New York City. See more coverage here.
I’m still going through photos, videos and notes from my trip to New York City last week. Still to come, I’ve got a story about Oonee, a very interesting company that builds and deploys modular bike parking pods. I also want to share videos and photos of the bewildering array of bike infrastructure I experienced. I might also share a story about e-bikes and “deliveristas” that I got from the Vision Zero Conference.
But before I get to that, I wanted to introduce you to a few more of my favorite characters. You met some of them on my first post; but I photographed so many more in the following three days. Call me strange, or whatever else you want, but I’ve developed an undeniable love for documenting people riding bikes in different cities and cultures. I’ve done this for years, and it hasn’t gotten old (hence my use of the word “love”).
Photographing people on their bikes in New York City was an absolute joy. I hope you love enjoy these images as much as I do. I’ve numbered them to make it easier to refer to specific folks in the comments. I’ve shared the location and other thoughts when possible in the caption. (Note: This doesn’t include delivery riders because I plan to share those in a separate post.)
