I once ran into him in the bike shop on Dyckman St which is the northern end of the Hudson River Greenway. Next time I run into him, I'll see if I can spark a conversation.
I see a guy on one of those bikes from time to time on our MUP. It looks like an eliptical machine on wheels. I suppose it's a good solution for someone with a tailbone issue that can't sit in conventional saddles.
For someone like me, it just looks like too much work.
