According to The New York Times, the big apple has taken to cycling in a rather endearing way since the recession hit. Quelle horreur! The bankers have had to give up their private car privileges!
I think NY is the perfect city to cycle around, the cars move so slowly there's no fear of being hit and going from downtown to uptown is just a short burst of energy away. Plus, I think we can all learn something from the Dutch, this being just one of them.
As with any new trend, the clothes one wears must change accordingly with one's transport. Here's The New York Times' vision of the modern day cyclist on his way to work. Somehow, I just can't see the men of Manhattan looking quite this ... snazzy.
