Here are some pictures I shot. This one didn't come out well. There is a jogger doing some stretches in the foreground, wearing a bright yellow jacket. Beyond the walkway in the distance is a gigantic barge, being pushed by a tugboat. Beyond that is the George Washington Bridge. I'm not sure how to capture the scale of all this. The river is over a mile wide. It's a contrast with a lot of the rest of the city which is built up tall but also doesn't have a lot of "air space" over a huge number of square miles. The Hudson River as at the western edge of the city, and we are looking over to New Jersey.



Here is a little bridge which crosses the railroad. The surface is wooden planks, and to make repairs, they add extra planks that are not flush with the rest of the surface. Today, the ground was wet, and my front tire slid along the edge of one of the planks, and I crashed. I'm not sure if my reflexes handled this well. I veered left into the side and crashed almost squarely with the left wall. I only bruised my left palm and my coccyx. I didn't bend or break anything on the bike, and I was able to re-plant myself and get going again.
