The New York Mets have introduced several new features and changes for the 2024 season, including a controversial update to their black jerseys and the addition of 66 Citi Bike docking stations at Citi Field. Fans have expressed mixed reactions to the redesigned black jerseys, with some criticizing the changes for diminishing the team's aesthetic appeal. Meanwhile, the Mets organization and NYC_DOT have collaborated to install the new Citi Bike docking stations at the stadium, enhancing accessibility for fans choosing to bike to games. This initiative marks the first time the bikeshare system has been made available at Citi Field since its start in 2012, offering a convenient transportation option for attendees.
Fans can now ride Citi Bike to see the Mets, after the team opened dozens of docks at Citi Field — the first time the bikeshare system has come to the stadium since its start in 2012. https://t.co/VQ7jjQhkzj
I can’t believe how badly the Mets botched the black jerseys https://t.co/i1fHHTrdu2
I don’t like the Mets’ black jerseys to begin with, yet these are somehow… much worse. They will look like the Marlins’ black jerseys (since discarded, I believe). Need the white outline to make the name pop; otherwise it’s hard to see from a distance. Alas. https://t.co/EbSnzqsmEs
Sixty years later and @MrMet is still cycling strong. Today we unveiled 66 @CitiBikeNYC docking stations at @CitiField. Half are just beyond the main entrance at the Jackie Robinson Rotunda, the other half are beyond the left-field fence. See you on #OpeningDay! 🚲⚾🚲⚾🚲⚾ https://t.co/h0fJ3nuZ7g

Interested in biking to Citi Field but concerned about what to do with your helmet? I’m told by Mets folks that this year you can bring it inside
