Bikes: "Hildy", a Novara Randonee touring bike; a 16-speed Bike Friday Tikit; and a Specialized Stumpjumper frame-based built-up MTB, now serving as the kid-carrier, grocery-getter.

Actually, that's not true at all. My experience is limited to my Dahon Curve, and it's quite easy to roll on one wheel, very maneuverable when some idiot commuter drone almost walks into the bike.

I'd be interested in pushing a Bike Friday or a Strida through Penn Station one day to see how they handle.
