I saw this bicyclist on 42nd Street. I liked his folding bike. It's a Strida 5.0. They're available at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) store. This is the type of bike that I'm seeing a lot more of ever since NYC became so bicycle friendly. I didn't see it at the time, but it looks like he's got on a gold solar powered watch or is that a calculator watch. Either way it's cool. Not to mention perfectly rolled up jeans. So hip.

About 25 years ago I knew a guy named Henry Hon who made bikes that looked a lot like this one, his bikes were called Hon Folders. I tried one and found it very uncomfortable.
