A fat bastard named John Catsimatidis
221 eighth ave, New york, NY
Q: What's one of the biggest obstacles to the success of congestion pricing?
A: Semi-tractor trailers blocking our bike lanes.
The multimillionaire CEO of Gristedes, John Catsimatidis, allows his trucks -- marked with White Rose and Gristedes logos -- to park in our bike lanes EVERY SINGLE DAY. Today I'm celebrating six months of posting to this website with yet another image of one of John Catsimatidis' trucks blocking the Eighth Avenue bike lane this morning. This driver kept his motor idling as he sat in his truck while it was being unloaded. Cough cough -- how many kids in NYC get asthma because of idling trucks? Cough cough -- how many oil-company executives testified about their high prices before Congress today? Cough cough -- aren't truckers on strike in some parts of this country because of high oil prices? Tell John Catsimatidis to tell his drivers to turn off their damn engines and stop blocking our bike lanes!
Maybe you've heard the news: John Catsimatidis wants to run for mayor. He would be the polar opposite of Mayor Bloomberg on sensible transportation alternatives. By not shopping in his stores, you'll send him a strong message, both on bike lanes and on his lack of leadership skills.
