From the Daily Heights Camphone Patrol:
Lucas writes: Did you see the tall bicyclists yesterday? A group of about 5-6 people riding six-foot-tall bicycles up Vanderbilt. Hilarious. Tried to get a shot, but they were too far away for my wee camphone. I can’t wait until US cell manufacturers start providing multi-megapixel cameras. Sheesh.”
Lucas also spotted these unsavory characters, clearly up to no good (check out the scowl on Rope Guy as he gets camphoned): “Not sure what they’re doing up there, but it looks like they’re cleaning the exterior of the dry cleaning building. Maybe not. They weren’t thrilled to be captured on film. (‘On disk’? What will people say now that film is being phased out?)”
I DID see them! It was great! But even better than that, was the couple who came by Bicycle Station on Saturday, with the custom engineered bike built for two, SIDE BY SIDE, where both people pedaled and steered, and the bike was in the middle. A really amazing bike that was.
i saw them as well, riding around prospect park on the bike loop at around 4pm. it was great!! i started cracking up. they looked like a pair of fun-loving dudes out to floss their new bike on a beautiful sunny day in brooklyn usa.
