There is no better proof of the utility

No usage could be more severe than that
received by the bicycle ridden by the
cycle police of New York city. Seventy
able-bodied men ride these wheels seven
hours a day while on patrol. Their ex-
citing employment consists in regulating
traffic, catching fast riders, with stopping
runaways as a frequent diversion Ac-
cording to the dictates of the municipal
authorities of New York city the Cycle
Squad must only ride on duty that
wheel which has the official endorsement
of the Police Department. Numerous
tests were arranged, in which all of the
leading makes took part. The competition
was keen, and that the Wolff American
was finally decided to be the one best
adapted for the severe usage of the cycle
police is an indication of their worth.
