A New York cyclist did a lot more than get from point A to point B on a Citi Bike recently.
Tyrone Williams, a professional BMX biker and co-owner of Dah Shop bicycle shop in Chinatown, stars in a viral video where he does tricks on the shared bicycles.
The video has garnered more than 1 million plays on YouTube and shows Williams popping wheelies, riding hands-free and doing other tricks on the bikes.
Williams said he thought the bike-sharing program could benefit from the viral video.
"In some ways it's like they're getting a lot of exposure as well, because you have more than a million views of someone riding your bike and doing something you thought couldn't be done," he said.
Citi Bike hasn't responded to requests for comment on the viral video.
