PUT SOME METTLE IN YOUR PEDAL: EXPLORE LM BY BIKE

By Dounya Guermah

Ernest Hemingway said the best way to “learn the contours of a country” was to ride a bike. Why not discover New York City’s contours the same way?

A good place to start is Brooklyn Bridge Bike Rent. It isn’t just any bike rental company — it also offers tours , bikes for sale (if you would like to ride long-term rather than short) and accessories. You can start your bike trip from 145 Nassau and spin throughout the hustle and bustle of Wall Street, to the waterfront at the Battery and north to the SoHo area and Washington Square Park.

Known for its friendly staff and customer service, Brooklyn Bridge Bike Rent offers great bikes (including fun tandem bikes) and educational tours with breathtaking views (including a two-hour leisure tour of Lower Manhattan).

Or take your own path and go wherever you choose!
