Above the River, On the Bike, Under the Sun

Finally, a real spring day — high 60s and sunny. I took the bike on the first real ride of the season (errands and laps around the park don’t really count), to Madison Square Park to meet rosefox for lunch on a bench in the sun. It was a pretty leisurely ride (just under 14 miles in about 80 minutes of riding; average speed 10mph) but it felt great. The photo is the East River looking north from the Manhattan Bridge.
