BSNYC Friday Fun Quiz!

("Is there a problem?")

Owing to my absence last week I fear some of you may be growing complacent, and by way of obviating this let's get right into the quiz.  As always, study the question, think, and click on your answer.  If you're right you'll know, and if you're wrong you'll see how fat bikes have gotten so mainstream they're now serving as foils in car commercials.

Thanks very much for reading, ride safe, and ride safely!
