David Byrne Designs Some Crazy Bicycle Racks

Once in a lifetime someone designs a bike rack so unique. Former Talking Heads frontman and multitalented genius David Byrne has come up with some amazing bicycle rack designs for his hometown of New York City. And amazingly, the city’s Dept. of Transportation agreed to install them! Each rack is themed for a specific area of the city where it was installed: a high heel shoe for the Ladies Mile shopping area, a dollar sign for Wall St., a naked lady silhouette for Times Square, a guitar for indie rock hipster Williamsburg, a car for near the Lincoln Tunnel. The bicycle racks will be in place for one year. More pics after the jump:
