Well, in the past week the NYPD have:
threatened to ticket a woman for cycling while "too sexy".
and ticketed a man for "riding a bike not in the bike line" (below)




Now, I'm getting the general concensus that the NYPD dislike cyclists, or it's a hell of a coincidence.


I know this isn't really news, but hell, the video's a laugh.

Bike lanes are there to be used when safe to do so, and when your speed is <15mph (or <8mph on shared use paths) but are NOT compulsory in the UK or USA (At least they're not in New York)
