NYC Urban Adventure
posted by id* at 07:32 PM on October 10, 2007
We had a day to kill in NYC and what could be better then a rollin' adventure down to Battery Park and the base of Manhattan… With a pair of New Yorkers as our guides we rolled out of Toga’s West side store and headed South. With a bike path heading down the Hudson River we easily rolled down to the tip of Manhattan – Battery Park – a few shots and a quick count of the flying helicopters overhead (6 all in view at one point) we decided bike paths were for wimps and heading back uptown the real way – across the Bowery to SoHo, up 4th Ave to Midtown and through central park.There’s nothing that gets the watts flowing like trying to close a gap on a NYC cab as you roll through a yellow light! We rolled well (and Peter even rode the tri-bike) and hit a few illegal sections just for kicks. As we hit Central Park we couldn’t resist doing a lap of the park and enjoyed a cool down from our day of urban riding!

Wish I made it on the ride. Too busy sipping expresso while making fun of passers by.
