The New York Times is running an article about groups of young men that spend thousands of dollars outfitting their bicycles (yes, bicycles) with high-powered sound systems and speakers. The riders are of Guyanese and Trinidadian background. In those countries, turning bicycles into rolling outdoor sound systems is a popular hobby, and they have brought their hobby to the streets of New York City. No decibel-violating tickets issued as of yet.
