Professor Evan Friss is an associate professor of history at James Madison University in Virginia, and the author of On Bicycles: A 200-Year History of Cycling in New York City The book traces the history of cycling in New York City. Horse-drawn carriages shared the road with bicycle lanes in the 1890s; up to Robert Moses’s car-centric vision. And when Mayor Ed Koch’s banned bikes during the short-lived 1987 Midtown Bike Ban.
