Have fun
The Manhattan side to the Manhattan bridge is far worse than the Brooklyn side now that they closed the north side bike path. Getting to it is a pain in the ass and involves crossing some nasty bridge traffic.
The Brooklyn is not a bad bridge to climb, but is just damned packed w/ tourists who wander around in a daze oblivious to their surroundings.
