July the Fifth Be With You

We’re going to take today off, but we won’t leave you without a few things to read. So in case you missed these stories, click away:

  • On Friday, Mayor de Blasio admitted he needed to do more to keep cyclists save in, through and around Central Park.
  • The nation’s e-bike buying spree continues, even without any real support from our government, as Kea Wilson reported.
  • Two New Jersey members of Congress explained their opposition to congestion pricing because they want to make sure their well-off constituents can always drive in to see Springsteen on Broadway.
  • Read about the life of Jeffrey Williamson, the cyclist killed by a postal truck driver last week.

We’ll be back tomorrow. Thanks for your support.
