A bicycle built for 4 in Greenburgh

August
24

Apparently, Paul Feiner is hoping that he and his slate to peddle their way to victory on Sept. 18.

Feiner, Greenburgh’s long-time supervisor, and his running mates are going to hit the campaign trail on a four-seat bicycle that was custom made in Maryland. The quartet of Feiner, Town Board candidates Kevin Morgan and Sonja Brown, and Town Clerk candidate Judith Beville will launch their bike tour Saturday afternoon at Anthony F. Veteran Park.

“If we can pedal together, we should be able to solve every major problem around town,” Feiner said in an e-mail today.

Morgan, a retired Greenburgh detective, picked up the bicycle yesterday in Baltimore and said his family already has been teasing him about the publicity stunt: “I’ll never live it down.”

Slate-on-a-bike is the brainchild of Feiner campaign worker Scott Schindler, who designed the green and white “I’m with Paul” campaign signs that are all over town. While Feiner is no stranger to, ahem, unique ideas (he once tried to launch a dating service out of Town Hall), seeing the four candidates on two wheels is bound to get a reaction — either for being environmentally conscious or enormously clownish.

Some people might even start singing this song:

Feiner, Feiner,
You’ve staged some strange stunts before
But are you crazy
Taking your slate on tour?
You already have the money
To buy signs, so why be funny?
They could say you’re all wrong
When you’re riding along
On a bicycle built for four.

    I personally saw a Feiner campaign worker on saturday
    morning putting up I’M FOR PAUL signs..on UTILITY POLLS
    owned by either the greenburgh municipality or
    con ed….Feiner is supposed to be an environmentalist
    what a crock…He is a desperate politician who seems
    only to have an ear for gimmicks

    Can you prove it? Most of the GOP candidates you back and consult for especially the ones in Yonkers have done far worse.
