oh jesus. why don't you pad the sidewalks fer chrissakes or make people wear helmets while walking just in case they trip, fall and hit their head. and while we're at it, we should ban people from doing two things at once, because we now know a person can't ride a bike and smile for a camera. enjoy life a bit more and stop gWhining.

Um, so what if it was Governor's Island? You can still have an accident and bash your head in (with or without traffic, especially when there are lots of pedestrians around as there can be on Governor's Island). People who ride without helmets are reckless dumbasses. End of story.

Man, if had a Flowbee, I'd totally do it. Dying to find out if anyone fulfills this guy's life long wish.

5 seconds after that photo was taken, the inattentive, helmetless biker ran into a jaywalking pedestrian and bashed her head into the side of the ambulance. ...no, not really, but I don't understand why Gothamist is glorifying unsafe biking.
