GW Bridge Access Ramp - Advice for new Siggies
The access ramp and hairpin turn up to the GW are my nemisis every summer. I am "clicked in" and have found that after several different approaches to getting up this darn thing I'm most comfortable walking my bike just past the turn and then jumping on...from there I have no issues with the rest of the bridge into NJ and no issues coming down.
Is this just awful to walk up past the turn? I have a fear of falling (plus staying out of everyone's way) trying to make that turn especially when it's crowded with cyclists, pedestrians, which is almost always the case. I definitely need to work on my balance which would probably help.
A commuter helmet I would totally buy
