Cycling in NYC with Real Time Safety Commentary from Queens through Manhattan to Brooklyn

I speak out some of my inner thoughts about safety in real time while cycling in NYC from Queens, through Manhattan, to Brooklyn via the Queens Plaza Greenway, Ed Koch Queensboro (59th Street) Bridge, 2nd Avenue, Chrystie Street, and the Manhattan Bridge. I hope this gives some insight into the mind of a cyclist while riding in one of the most crowded cities in the world!
