Summer Streets NYC 2021

It felt great finally to get out to an organized public outdoor event and experience some sort of normalcy. I have to admit I still feel skittish going out in the public especially in confined spaces with crowd gatherings but summer streets is not that! For those who have followed us for a little while know that Summer Streets which is when NYC shuts down vehicular traffic for 7 miles for folks to run, bike, walk, talk, and basically do what they please short of committing a crime without having to worry about cars or any caged battering ram running amuck on the street! From Brooklyn Bridge/Supreme Court/Foley Square via Lafayette Street all the way to 72nd Street Central Park via Park ave was a Highway of bliss for pedestrians & bicyclists! For me it was amazing just to drive into the city, find a good parking spot, take out the bicycle, and just pedal into oblivion and to infinity! You know, just free the mind from the grind! It reminds me to not take things for granted and appreciate the simple things in life! These photos will look very familiar as we have ridden Summer Streets countless times since creation of this gathering but I can tell you everything felt like new again! We hope everyone is kind to themselves and kind to each other. Take care and see you on the streets!
