I’m working on a series of illustrations that will be featuring many types of the bicyclists in New York City area, based on my personal observation. I will be posting them here and on my blog about the bicycling culture of NYC: http://bikeholic.tumblr.com.
Here’s the very first one: A Fashionista:
"You can spot the fashionista bicycle girl In the most hip parts of the city like, soho. She bicycles as she walks - with a fashion statement. A designer’s purse is always - in her bike basket in front. She usually wears ray ban shades, cause she is, well…stylish. She only rides the thin wheel bikes. She often wears heels, or céline flats. Oh, and don’t try to talk to her, she’s not that kinda girl, unless you never miss the fashion weeks. You can catch her off her bike at Beauty & Essex, unless she’s at a designer’s sample sale. And if you’re on a date with one, order her a skinny sour".
