"Citi Bike’s leading pedal pushers include riders who have logged more than 4,000 miles atop the blue cruisers," Danielle Furfaro in an article that acknowledges and celebrates the stamina and consistency of the system's top users.

The article celebrates biking and the riders who have deployed New York's bikeshare system—much to the chagrin of the detractors who predicted failure and mayhem as a result of the novel form of public transit.

The article includes tales of overcoming fears and lingering frustrations (like shortages of bikes), in addition to the common theme of describing how the bikes have changed the way they interact with the city.
