Ever Ride in City Traffic 1453

I am not sure about either the extreme west side or east side either. Perhaps at some times of the day, but not at other times of the day. Central Park would work, but how to get you and your bike to the Park would be the problem.

The very best way to get around New York City is via the subway and then to walk. New York is a walker's paradise. I used to walk from one end of Manhattan to the other end on weekends many times and I never got bored. I truly do not think there is another city in the US that is as interesting or as exciting to walk about as is New York.

When I lived in Brooklyn Heights, I use to take the subway for about 10 cents (this was back in the 1960's) and travel to a jumping off point in the City. From my jumping off point I would walk and walk until total exhaustion set in. It never even occurred to me at the time to get a bicycle. In fact, I don't even remember ever seeing any bikes, but maybe that was because I wasn't looking.

Now that I am coming to the end of my life I am getting back to walking again. Unfortunately, I now have to do it in my small town here in the Upper Midwest. It is not New York of course, but still, walking is walking and you always feel better after having done it.

We humans are actually designed for walking, not biking. If I still lived in New York, I would want to walk and would not even consider a bike.
