nyc bike map cover

When I biked in Brooklyn I had a lot of I-love-life moments coasting down Clinton Street and its tall canopy of trees. When I biked in Chinatown I almost died over and over again. My bike is now property of the delivery boys downstairs, but I salute all the persevering Manhattan bikers/survivors…

Things are definitely on the up and up with new bike lanes added each year and you can easily find them thanks to the NYC bike map (free at any bike shop). Through my friend Jen, I got a chance to offer the Department of Transportation some designs for this year’s bike map cover. Alas, they went with something else, but I thought I’d post my three design passes so they can have a brief life beyond my laptop.
