Yesterday I biked back and forth on all three east bridges (Williamsburg, Manhattan, and Brooklyn), a big goal of mine now accomplished!

Brooklyn has the best view, then Williamsburg, last Manhattan.

it was an awesome day of discoveries.

What about me? -- nm - 59th Street Bridge Aug 4, 07:56 12
- oh! i have actually crossed this one before too, but not yesterday -- nm - Hotkiss Aug 4, 07:57 11
  - I guess you need to slow down. You move too fast. -- nm - loosilu Aug 4, 07:58
  - I bet it felt pretty groovy, huh? -- nm - znufrii Aug 4, 07:58 9
    - all of them are pretty sweet, wish more people know about them -- nm - Hotkiss Aug 4, 07:59 8
      - Queensboro is probably the ugliest by far. -- nm - loosilu Aug 4, 08:00 7
        
        if you're talking strictly East River, yeah, but Outerbridge Crossing on Staten Island gets my money for ugliest bridge in the entire city. -- nm - znufrii Aug 4, 08:02 6
        
        I was thinking East River, yes. Outerbridge is bad. So is Goethals. -- nm - loosilu Aug 4, 08:03 5
        
        there might be a few of the smaller Harlem River bridges that would give it a run for its money as well, but I'm less familiar with those. -- nm - znufrii Aug 4, 08:04 4
        
        also, I had no idea each of the 3 I biked are over a mile long! wow -- nm - Hotkiss Aug 4, 08:08
        
        I don't think they're so bad. From street level you see a lot of New-Deal era stonework. -- (link) - loosilu Aug 4, 08:07
