The Citi Bike stationary workout is for real



Lame parodies aside, people are apparently using Citi Bikes for a stationary workout... Jose Garcia saw this woman going through a vigorous session the other day on East 10th Street outside Tompkins Square Park...

Per Jose: "She was taking breaks, had a towel to wipe her brow and a bottle of liquid to hydrate. She was enjoying herself."

And no membership or credit card necessary.

I'm sure there is some infraction that the NYPD could fill their quota with!

I've had a neck spasm for the last month that's aggravated by leaning my head forward when riding my bike. That looks like a good idea for me too. Better than nothing at all.

how anyone rides these germ, sweat and urine infested things is totally beyond me.
