16 Portraits of Stylish NYC Cyclists With Their Diverse Bikes | Distractify



Clothes can certainly say a lot about a person's preferred style, but photographer Sam Polcer has found a new way to gauge one's sense of style—through their bikes. He captures the diverse and eclectic style of cyclists in New York City for his book titledNew York Bike Style, documenting these fashionable people and their varicolored/shaped modes of transportation.
