You've obviously never been to philly.
or Florida. from first hand riding experience i can say that there's few places in America as bike-friendly as NYC. of course, that's if we're talking about URBAN riding. if you are a roadie looking to do century rides on nice roads with scenic views, you'll hate NYC. it all depends on the kind of riding you want to do.
