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'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.
