it will never be a movement in new york, because we'll still take the subway. and if it's not a movement in new york, it'll never be a movement in the country... =)
no it will actually be a movement for it in new york, but then people would get tired of it in about 2 months and it'll get annoying. plus it's not something you buy your kid for christmas, it's a serious transportation tool, like a moped. but how many people buy mopeds? think about it.
and also i'm just waiting for some kid to get thrown off after getting hit by a car and crack his ****ing skull... that would be fun to see.
