The city’s bicycling infrastructure has plenty of room for improvement, according to thousands of cyclists who responded to the first-ever New York Cycling Census.
None of the categories that responding cyclists were asked to rate yielded more than 3.2 stars out of five on average, with several seeing ratings below 2 stars. New Yorkers gave the city’s bikeshare infrastructure, mainly but not limited to CitiBike, an ambivalent 3.14 stars on average, while on the lower end, the city’s secure bike parking ratings came in at a dismal 1.54 stars.
