The Roosevelt Island Tram

You’ve seen it, but have you ever ridden it? For the price of a metrocard swipe some gorgeous views of Manhattan are yours, and a bunch of tourists’, for the taking. On this pretty day I got to cross this quick activity off my NYC bucket list. The ride is 4 minutes each way… but on this day, the interesting addition of the bikers of the Five Boro Bike Tour!

A slew of people waiting to board…

Here we go!

The Queensboro bridge

A nice ride and, along with the ferry system, a cheap way to see the city’s sites.
