Weekend explorations: Bike launch, New York City

Well, that break lasted longer than I intended, thanks to a cold. But I began recovering in time for a stormy New York weekend - the city's bike share program is ready to launch! Happy Monday.

Good to hear you are on the road to recovery, the bikes look so cool, just what Sydney needs. We are arguing about the helmets law and if it will still apply to bike hire.

Great shot! I've often wondered how I might capture the Bikeshare bikes in D.C.

P.S. All orchids shown on my yesterday post are Phalaenopsis varieties.

First, that's a beautiful shot. I love the idea of this program and hope that it is successful.

Second, glad you are feeling better. There's nothing worse than a spring cold.

Nice shot + welcome back Lulu! Sorry about your cold, hope you enjoyed NYC despite... didn't realize they didn't have bike share already but I imagine it might be difficult to compete with all the cabs ;)

Definite candidate for Blue Monday!

Cool shot!

Lisa Gordon said...

What a great shot this is, Jude!
Here in Upstate, it was stormy, but it was also cold. Not chilly, but COLD, including a frost last night. So strange, but things are supposedly on the upswing this week! :-)

Super image, Lulu. Nice to see you're back but not nice that you have been under the weather. Take care!!!

Rosie Grey said...

I'm glad you're better again! Such a great photo!
It has been stormy here, too - much too cold and a lot of rain :-(
Have a wonderful week, Jude!

Andy said...

You have an eye for a great shot.

William Kendall said...

Keep getting your rest. It's a good shot; we've got a program very similar here for bikes.

Petrea Burchard said...

Nice lineup.

Glad to see you back.
This is a great perspective. And good luck to them with this program, I think it's a great idea.

Thanks so much, everyone! Nice to be back:)

EG CameraGirl said...

I very much like the angle you shot these bikes from!

Jack said...

Nice perspective. I do like the idea of shared bike programs but I don't know if the economics will work. The idea fits better for cars because the capital cost of a car is so high and the inconvenience factor of owning one is so high that many city dwellers can't afford them. But, bikes are relatively cheap and easy to store, so I don't know if they will be used much by residents.

Sorry about the cold. I just got over one, too.
