I will be attending a conference in October at the Marriott Hartford Downtown on Columbus Blvd in Hartford, CT, but because the hotel is so expensive I booked a much less expensive room at the Hilton Hartford on Trumbull St. instead (about 8 city blocks away).

I'm thinking of bringing my folding bike to get to and from the convention. I am completely unfamiliar with Harford. Can anyone tell me how the biking is in that area? A recommended route? Also, I will probably be returning to my hotel in the late evening. Is it safe to ride back at night? (I have loads of lights and always ride with a neon vest that has lights built in for night riding). Is this a bad idea? The conference will be taking place on the Friday evening through Sunday morning.

Thanks for any info.
