The ride

Bike up the Greenway along the Hudson (all protected bike lane), take a detour to theGeneral Grant Memorial and see where President Grant is entombed above ground. July 23 is the anniversary of President Grant’s death, so if you’re lucky like us, you’ll catch a reenactment: President Grant

Stop by the iconic Little Red Lighthouse that inspired this children’s book.

Food stops

  1. Head to Malecon in Washington Heights for Dominican Food. Their famous roasted chicken is only $12 for a whole chicken: Malecon

  2. We ate too much at Malecon, so couldn’t make it to pizza. But once you hit battery park, stop by Shake Shack for your version of ice cream/shake/cones: Shake Shack
