Bicyclists are as much a part of New York City as tourists in Times Square. Proof of that can be found in new data released Thursday by the mayor’s office. Ridership for New York’s bike-sharing program Citi Bike reached nearly 14 million trips in 2016, recording its third-straight year of growth. The number of trips was about 40 percent higher than in 2015, good for about 4 million more rides.
