Brooklyn’s Bike Safety Day Rides in Greenpoint

Greenpoint pedaled last night with Brooklyn’s Bike Safety Day, rolling NYC’s spring on Nassau. Cyclist Tariq Evans led 100 riders, a free clinic for road rules. It’s borough spokes—pure BK vibe, helmets hot. A kid adjusted brakes; a pro checked lights. ‘Brooklyn rides—this is it,’ Evans says, handing reflectors. The street turned course.

The day’s fresh—March 21’s start, it tripled since RSVPs, packing curbs by 10 a.m. Evans, a Williamsburg biker; last night’s crowd hit max—bells rang. A latecomer nabbed a kit; tips flew—NYC grit glowed. Drills hit 20—safety ruled. #BKBikeSafety trended; Queens wants a lane.

Some griped—’Too basic,’ sniped a speeder, dodging drills. Dust kicked—sneezes hit; care held. A rival’s pitching a Bushwick ride, splitting chains. Still, 150 stayed—roads reigned. Greenpoint’s never pedaled so bold.

Evans hints at a monthly run, maybe a night ride if spring bites. ‘NYC’s streets—this guards ‘em,’ he says, packing gear. The day’s a Brooklyn win—grit meets glide. It’s a safety rush; join the next. Bring a bike—rules call.
