A new photo series shows cyclists in NYC deliberately riding on busy streets and highways instead of using the city's 1,000+ miles of bike lanes. This is a change from the DOT's plan for safe cycling.

Heh. There I was biking on the narrow sidewalk on 69th Rd where it's uphill and multiple vehicle lanes in one direction and there's no bike lane, and coming in the other direction on the sidewalk was someone else on a bike.
Ridiculous that #NYC hasn't put a bike lane there.
