A Citi Bike rider who was hit and severely injured back in April has died, Streetsblog has learned, bringing the total of cyclists killed in the city this year to 14 — already four more than all of last year.
Hundreds of cyclists rode from Williamsburg to Chelsea last night, taking over the roadway from lower Manhattan to 23rd Street, in a memorial ride for 20-year-old Robyn Hightman, a bike courier who this week became the 12th cyclist killed on New York City streets in 2019.
