I live in Murray Hill area.  My usual cardio biking workout consists of going over the 4 east river bridges (59th, Manh, WBurg, Brkyn).  The gradients is at best 4% during my ride.  NYCC has a list of regional hill grades which show that the Inwood area has some of the steepest gradients in Manhattan (9% :O).   I check Google Map which shows that I can get to the Inwood area on the Westside Highway.  Prefer sometime safe away from car traffic so 5th avenue route or the east side greenway route aren't as safe because you have to ride in the street more.  Westside Highway looks like a nice route plus it will get me to GW bridge which I haven't gone over yet.   But once I'm in the Inwood area, how safe is the area?  Can anyone s

Women's Large Escape NYC Jersey - For Sale

Submitted by christapeters on Fri, 07/26/2013 - 9:49am

I purchased a large Escape NYC women's jersey. It is a little too small.

If you're looking to buy one on the site, let me know. I bought it for $80.00 and would like to get my money back (so I can purchase an XL). Just think you won't have to wait the 2 weeks for delivery!
