For those who don’t know, the 5 Boro Bike Tour is a huge bike event in NYC that takes place each may. Forty-two miles of roadway are closed to car traffic so that more than 30,000 cyclists can ride along a course that passes\u00a0through\u00a0all five boroughs. It’s gotten pretty popular. This year they sold out in one day.<\/p>\n

Bike New York<\/a>, the organization that puts on the Tour every year, asked me late last year to work with them on a new feature for their magazine-style Program. The piece, “In My Neighborhood”, would feature 5 #BikeNYC portraits, one of a rider in each of the 5 boroughs of New York. Each photo would be accompanied by a quote from the cyclist about what it’s like to ride in their borough. At the time, I had enough Brooklyn and Manhattan subjects for them to choose from, but I had to find, photograph, and interview riders in\u00a0Staten Island, Queens, and the Bronx in December. The programs are now being sent out, and I managed to snag one at Eastern Mountain Sports.\u00a0Bike New York were terrific to work with, and did a great job with the spread. I couldn’t be happier with how this came out:<\/p>\n

Manhattan – Alex<\/a><\/p>\n

Brooklyn – Sheryl<\/a> (Representing not just Brooklyn, but my beloved Greenpoint!)<\/p>\n

Staten Island – John<\/a> and Martha<\/p>\n

Bronx – Hugo<\/a><\/p>\n

Queens – Megan<\/a><\/p>\n

I know that all of the above are stoked to be representing their respective corner of the city. High fives all around.<\/p>\n
