[@ry8an25oliver93]

Love your content Casey but riding e-bikes that can go 30+ MPH in bike paths shared with non-motorized vehicles is fairly dangerous, especially on narrow two way bike paths on bridges.

[@mattdaaamon]

I mean a top tier cylist is dangerous by existance in that way. this is a vehicle whick takes up the profile of a bike. Would safety overall be better with something of this size be on the street instead? This seems like a grey area overall and I am not sure we have figured out the answers. One could imagine more small but fast commuter EVs should be encouraged to have even less taffic in nyc.

@@soteri787 what's he meant to do ride across the bridge on the road which is illegal id assume as the bridge would be cars and other motor vehicles only.

Some safety questions.. #1 Where is that water draining to? #2 Will the drained water affect the surrounding foundations? #3 Will that pressure building from that faulty seal lead to the hydrant busting off the cap and injuring someone? P.S. The shots in this video are absolutely beautiful *chefs kiss*

[@Vanessa-e5h]

It's beautiful to look at; but the fish pond right where the leaky fire hydrant is located; wouldn't comply with the city's property laws... especially 1. The fire hydrant should not be leaking. 2. There should be no obstruction near , towards or to the fire hydrant; especially during emergencies....And possibly animal cruelty. New York City Department of Environmental Protection fixed the fire hydrant''s leak; as well as the cracked pavement. And while the fish pond has been moved; the fish will possibly not be safe....due to unsafe various temperatures. All The Best, Vanessa
