Since my move, I’ve been creating some new rides—and finding new routes for old ones.
Yesterday’s ride fell into the latter category. I took an early morning ride to City Island—officially part of the Bronx and New York City but so different—via Bronx Park and the lanes that parallel Pelham Parkway, the Hutchinson River Parkway and City Island Road.
It’s good to know that it can be an early morning or end-of-day ride: Going to the end of the island and back is about an hour’s worth of cycling.
Because none of the restaurants (yes, they’re all about seafood) were open, it really felt like a sleepy New England fishing village—especially since it seemed that everyone who was out was fishing or walking a dog.
