Okay, so I know you guys don’t necessarily care about biking in New York City. But here’s some big news!

We’re getting those awesome chartreuse (as they call it, I think they’re mint green) bike lanes through Times Square.

Here are a few pics:

I don’t actually use the bike lane on my commute, but I actually work right next to it. It is useful on some of the recreational rides I do, and I’m excited that they’re repaving and painting. The color makes the lane very visible to drivers and pedestrians, which I’ve noticed results in respect for cyclists.
