Biking Culture……The New Yorker bicycle covers, Part III
I’ve said it before: I think The New Yorker has a thing for bicycles (see Part I and Part II in this series of posts)
This time, with the introduction of NYC’s bicycle share program, the storied literary magazine has a genuinely newsworthy reason to feature bicycles on their cover.
There was also this cover from back in February.
Can you count all the hipster tropes?
- thick-framed eyewear
- food truck
- body ink
- beard
- knit cap
- duffle coat w/ toggles
- discriminating (if not condescending) gaze
- Brooklyn residence
Did I miss anything?
Is that a hole-in-the-lobe kind of earring I see?

Nice! I think it is a tribal ear piercing. I missed that one.
