“Video Portrait of Stephen Athineos” 2:30
“For 28 years, Steve Athineos sped through the streets of New York City as a member of the Pony Express, one of thousands of anonymous bike messengers that businesses rely on and pedestrians try to avoid while crossing the street. He’s been a legend in that community since leading protests in 1987 to stop a proposal that would ban cycling in Manhattan. This video portrait is a tribute to Steve’s dynamic personality and unstoppable commitment to riding in the city he loved.”
