Uptown Loop Biking Adventure

Going southbound, Harlem River Greenway ends at 155th Street, and it's not until around 125th Street that East River Greenway begins. Even the East River Greenway doesn't continue all the way down. The East Side certainly is not yet up-to-date in fixing biking lanes. The Uptown Loop, therefore not a true loop of Uptown, turned out like this:

• Hudson River Greenway northbound
• Dyckman Street eastbound
• Harlem River Greenway southbound
• Frederick Douglass Blvd southbound
• West 119th Street westbound

The only true uphill challenge was on the Hudson Greenway right after passing GW Bridge. Sections of Dyckman St contained no biking lane, as was the entire way of Frederick Douglass Road. Starting and ending at Columbia, it's about a 12 mile loop.
