The "Cyclist" was erected to promote Greenfield’s commitment to alternative transportation and healthy living. The bronze sculpture of a stylized person riding an even more stylized bicycle rests on a 6' by 3' by 3' granite block. The bicycle rider has its head down over the front wheel and its head is turned to the right. The blue diamonds, suggest the bicyclist is wearing a racing uniform.
A plaque on the granite base is inscribed:
The "Cyclist" celebrates the freedom and joy of the rider.
It exemplifies Greenfield's goal to invite alternative transportation and healthy living.
