New York City has been described as the cultural, financial, and media capital of the world, significantly influencing commerce, entertainment, research, technology, education, politics, tourism, art, fashion, and sports.
New York’s incredibly multi-ethnic population defines the city’s culture as one of the most eclectic anywhere and with more than 800,000 regular bicyclists we’re in the midst of a kind of cycling renaissance, with almost half a million bike trips made in the five boroughs every day. New York’s ever-expanding bike network, growing from 250 miles of bike lanes in 2006 to nearly 1,200 today, has made it so you can ride pretty much anywhere.
