1m50s Lyrics for a new song by Byrne (cue bicycling generated music and images)?

'Yeah -- we're almost -- almost somewhere."
"I think here -- yes."
"We can go a nice iced coffee."
"And we can kind of walk from here."

Are you serious? A reporter can't write about Byrne's bike racks without you snapping?

Snapping ? I prefer ~venting~ over a useless "news" story. Sorry if you were offended in some way....Byrne's cool ...the story is weak.

Great comment CLIBERACKI.
I witnessed a man do exactly that around 47st and Park Ave, in NYC about 30 years ago. He rode onto the curb, flipped some messenger guy's fast-release wheel clamps and rode away in traffic with the whole frame on his shoulder, before a nearby cop could get to him. BRAZEN. People walking all around him too.
I noticed that after that, folks in the area started chaining the FRAME to the signs and carrying their front wheels with them when delivering small packages.

Maybe Some people don't get it, but some people do.
These are needed items. His music is great . THIS project, in my opinion is just as impressive as any of his music. EXCELLENT IDEA. Right products, right time, right reason-- and artistic too. Just position them to try to balance the possibilty of blocking the sidewalk, versus the need for cars to open their doors completely for older or maybe handicapped people and you are fine. Way to go DB. !!
