It's a gorgeous day today in New York and I'm trying my hand legs in biking to my Manhattan gym from Brooklyn. Yes, I know this in and of itself is not blog worthy but I found the sweetest new site to enable this little adventure: Ride The City.

It's totally awesome. You can type in any two addresses and it will spit out a "bike approved" route. You can choose from 3 options: Safest Route, Safe Route, Most Direct Route. I'm going to try the Safe Route today.

Since the weather is getting nicer and the MTA is about to screw all of us out of our money at the end of the month it just might be a good time to get friendly with the gritty New York streets.
