How appropriate that the final ghost bike is placed right on Marty Markowitz's doorstep. Hopefully it will serve to remind him that he has a duty to keep Brooklyn's citizens safe.

Working as a bike messenger in the
city, I'm up, down and all around the streets of New York. Having experienced so many "close calls" this ride felt close to my heart. A fatal accident could happen to any bike rider/pedestrian at any given moment. The ghost bikes, the bike lifts are important actions that should remind and show the onlookers that bicycles ARE a legitimate form of transportation. The invention of the car does not eliminate the right of bicycles to be on the road.
