BYRNE BUILDS BIKE RACKS FOR NEW YORKERS.

TALKING HEADS rocker DAVID BYRNE is helping New Yorkers pedal around the Big Apple, by designing a range of arty bicycle racks. The nine installations have been places in various locations around the boroughs of Manhattan and Brooklyn. The shapes include a man, a dog, a mug, a guitar and a dollar sign. New York resident Byrne came up with the idea to help promote a Department of Transportation competition to design indoor and outdoor bike racks. Byrne's creations will be on show for a year, before being sold as art pieces.
