Bike MS NYC
Anyone else do it yesterday? I did the 100mi, my first century, and boy it was torturous. A ton of hills. Thoughts on the course?
I'm not one to judge since this was my first century, but it was very hilly which definitely destroyed me. My one complaint about the ride was crossing the George Washington Bridge on the pedestrian path. A very busy path that is way to narrow for that much traffic. Other than that I though it was organized and run very nicely and riding through the Lincoln Tunnel with no traffic was awesome. Too bad this was the last year to be able to do that. Overall a lot of fun. I'm definitely feeling it today though.
