Human Christmas Tree Spotted on Amsterdam Avenue

A tipster who wishes to remain anonymous spotted this illuminated figure bicycling on Amsterdam Avenue at 86th Street on Wednesday night.

Frankly we could use quite a bit more of this kind of weirdness.

Naples, FL. Saw a group of 20 biking down the main street with lights all over their bikes. Love lights on bikes. This person branched out & leaves us pining for more.

Out of desperation not to get hit by car in long dark winter nights? Brilliant idea in any perspectives….

This in all good humour – after reading the absurd comments re: the NYPD – is a brilliant way to get away from a crime:)
