Hi, all!
I have always wanted to walk across and or bike ride across the Brooklyn Bridge and finally, my friend Yuka and I checked it off of my list! The experience was fun, breathtaking and tiring, lol!
We chose the perfect time to do the bike ride because the sun never looked so beautiful, and it wasn’t beating down on us to make the experience unbearable — We started at like 5:30PM/6 PM? The hardest thing was getting the Citibike up the stairs, lol. I am small and the bike was heavy.
Yuka was carrying her bike with ease, and when I went to pick mine up, I was like uh.. no lmao. I had to wait for her to come back to help me because we would’ve been there all day if it were up to me.
Anywho, once we finally got on to the bridge, the party finally started! Now, I would recommend for everyone to have this experience, however.. be aware of the people! There two lanes available, one to walk, and one to ride your bike.
The walkers have no regard for the bikers and will casually walk in your lane, which will either make you stop short, or work a nerve… or both. That is when I realized that my bike had a bell so I just kept copying everyone else by saying bike lane and ringing my bell! If they didn’t move out of the way in time.. well, that was their bad lmao!
We took photos, looked at the beautiful view, and had a great time. I got a killer work out too!!
Grab a bike, and go ride across the Brooklyn Bridge, you won’t regret it.
