august 6, 2016, my third ride since getting my bike. biked queens blvd, to skillman ave (as suggested by the nyc bike map for bike routes). originaly wanted to go on the queensboro bridge, but decided to detour a block back onto skillman avenue, and try for the williamsburg bridge. somewhere on the williamsburg greenway i missed my turn so had to detour back around again. expained in the notes on the map.
i'm using the "Easy GPS logger" app on my phone to log the route as a gpx file to upload here.
parking protected bike lane.
be on the right hand side of the road to turn right because cars won't stop as they go straight.
don't like this street, crowded due to cars turning off bridge. it has a green bike path, but there may be parked/stopped cars on it. beware of cars ignoring red lights, and turning onto this street
