A Great Ride

By New York Family Posted on July 19, 2010

We love the beautiful European city bikes that are so ubiquitous in Copenhagen and other bike-friendly cities. And though we may not have their year of paid maternity, free health or state subsidized child care here in New York, we can now at least ride in style like the Scandinavians thanks to the new Adeline Adeline bike shop in Tribeca. This store is not for the serious spandex-wearing biker but for the biker serious about the beauty and pleasure of riding. They have everything from classic Italian city bikes to chainless (no pant pegs needed!) Biomega Amsterdam Danish Upright Bicycle with all the stylish accessories to complete the look. All you need is a bit of wind in the hair and some flowers in the wicker basket to ride in style. The shop is located at 147 Reade Street. www.adelineadeline.com
