Day trip
Bike Ride to Staten Island
This last Sunday was a beautiful early Fall day here in Manhattan. We took our bikes down to the recently opened Midtown West / St. George ferry line down at pier 79. As it just so happened, another person waiting for the boat was from SI and gave us the tip on “Snug Harbor” as a wonderful park to check out. We decided to go with his plan.
It was a short two miles or so to the ferry, then a pleasant 40 minute ride out to SI via a stop in Battery Park City. After that it was about a 20 minute cycle around the northern edge of the island to the park.
