Taking on the eco-friendly and uber cool bikers of NYC, photographer Sam Polcer's New Yorkers photo series is interesting and once again proves there's just something about the city that makes it cooler than everywhere else.

The 'New York Bike Style' series shows us vibrant portraits of colorful characters with their [bikes all over the city](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bicycle-store). The fun and raw New Yorkers photo series depicts all sorts of people including the young at the Afropunk Festival in Ft. Greene, the old at the [Puerto Rican Schwinn Club](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glowing-relief), the hip, the simple, the banker, the artist and literally everything in-between.

The [street-style photography project](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/still-life-1) shows a friendlier and much more approachable side to the urban jungle.
