Anyone who has met or spoke to this guy will know that he is the nicest genuine guy out there. Not your typical politician. He has my vote!

I feel the same. The bike gemach and the new bike shop in Crown Heights is really phenomenal. Its done so much in terms of accessibility and promoting health.

I’ve always wanted to bike more, but was hesitant, since it isn’t done so much in crown heights, and was scared to bike on the streets, but now, it’s becoming so much more common and safe with the bike lanes. It’s also more common and accessible thanks to the bike gemach!

Biking lanes on Empire

The biking lanes on Empire really helped the traffic flow! Now I don’t have to swerve around double-parked cars any more or wait so long for turning cars at every other light…

Maybe no one uses the lane now, but having it around is the only way to encourage people to use it.
