NEW York and back to NEW Jersey that is. What a great ride today! Skies were more clear, we crossed the George Washington Bridge on bikes without a hitch, scored some tasty street meat while waiting for the ferry and cruised the Jersey Shore for the first time.

The bike trail into New York down to Battery Park is bike friendly, scenic and a unique way to see some of the city.

Although we didn’t get into the meat of New York it truly is a great American city. The buildings, the people, the energy – amazing!

The SeaStreak ferry shuttled us back over to Atlantic Highlands in New Jersey and we cycled along the shore through Sea Bright, Sea Girt, Asbury Park and ended our day in Point Pleasant with dinner on the water recapping our day and planning for tomorrow.
