Woo woo... communitybuilder got quoted in the New York Times for his Green-Wood Cemetery "no bikes" story (in fact, his story inspired the NYT story):

A Heavenly (but Off-Limits) Place to Ride a Bike
Green-Wood Cemetery bans bicycles, citing a concern for safety and a need Ã¢â‚¬Å“to comfort the loved ones.Ã¢â‚¬Â

"As one cyclist recently summed up the situation on the message board Brooklynian.com, the no-bikes rule in Green-Wood Cemetery "is bizarre, nonsensical and most of all, a real shame." "
