Absolute Bagels always a line. The egg bagel when it’s hot and fresh is so good. That subtle sweetness and get it with some chive cream cheese, fire!

That’s a goal of mine from 220th to South ferry with a celebratory ride.
How long did it take you?
How many stops for food, drink, bagels, pizza, etc? Was it foodie stops or just places to fill up.
Did you take Broadway? Or another route?
The restroom situation makes me nervous. Had an emergency once so I got off at Union Square tried the Whole Foods and the whole seat was pissed stain. The only public park bathroom in NYC that is usable is Bryant Park/Public Library and Prospect Park. Sucked it up bought something at some casual restaurant.

You don’t find the USQ bathroom acceptable? I’ve used it and thought it was fine. For next time, Target also has a public bathroom.
I believe it took about 7 hours all in all and we took the Broadway route until we were about to hit the Times Square area, then we took 8th Ave instead.
Stops were:
BEC at the beginning at a bodega around 220th
Cocina Consuelo in Hamilton Heights ~ 143rd
Absolute Bagels ~ 107th
Katana Kitten ~ 10th/Hudson
Celebration drinks afterwards at Dead Rabbit
I considered myself in good shape then since I walked everywhere anyways but that walk kicked my ass. I knew that my knees would hurt but I was surprised at how sore my hips got. Definitely worth it though!
