I would like to see a follow up article on more typical NYC commuting cyclists wearing street clothes, are not racers, do not commute in pace lines or with an organized groups, and actually commute a reasonable distance everyday from their NYC home to place of business. Reasonable meaning not requiring an entire ensemble of specialized clothing to accomplish.
Well who's going to make any money off a thing like that?
