PORTRAITS OF NEW YORK’S FIXIE RIDERS

It is widely known, that husbands and their wives, and dogs and their masters develop certain similarities as their relationship progresses. Less known, but just as evident is the fact that the same happens to bicyclists and their bikes. This is most apparent in people with a strong sense of style and a deep love for bicycling. Fixie riders in short.

Here is a portrait series of some of the riders at the forefront of New York’s bike renaissance.
