I found this while continuing my walk down 32nd street (see yesterday's post) towards penn station. I love how it's painted the same taxi cab yellow as a typical nyc cab is. for more of all things yellow, please visit mellow yellow monday.
Yes, we have them here in Dublin too! I think they're a great idea. Here, they're free, sponsored by companies who get their logo on them, but you can tip the rider if you want. Are they free in long Island? Happy MYM!
Gayle, I've only seen a few men ride these & they always look extremely fit & are always carrying two if not three passengers.
Nori, I'm not sure what the rules are. this is the first time I've seen one parked & the driver was nowhere to be found. Perhaps he was inside taking a break! As far as the size of their passengers, I hope the driver charges accordingly. : ) Personally I wish more people would use bicycles in NYC. It would be much safer, healthier & cleaner.
This is a cool shot, Lily! I'm still sorry that the plan to cut down on traffic by charging cars to come into Manhattan didn't work. I'm with you: more bikes!
You have heard of LI & its many stereotypes? You wonder if they may be true but wish not to risk visiting in the event that they are. Be bold then & visit me daily & I promise I will show you many sides of Long Island that you will be both amazed & inspired by.

and how it draws attention to itself by parking on the sidewalk!
Cool photo!
Happy MYM.

Sometimes I wonder how the drivers can pedal those things all day...especially when they carry more than one person at a time!
Gayle's right! The pedaler must be in really good shape. I love this concept and think there should be more like it, going green! ~karen
Cool pic!
But I have some of questions.
They are allowed to park their "cabs" at both roadway and sidewalk?
They could get extra fare in the case their customer was "Sumo" wrestler?
Cool photo, love that is is saving gas. Happy MYM!
Hey, that's cute. I saw these in NYC but never rode in one.

Interesting, nothing like that here. The "driver" must be in excellent shape, talk about burning calories. Great picture.
I've always wanted to take a ride in one of those!
very cool indeed.

Interesting. I wonder if it is easier than it looks?
Very cool-and bright!!

Is that ever cool! I want a ride in it!
SO bright! It looks very inviting.
These are goo, very eco. When I was young in Borneo, we were embarrassed.
