Note of December 2022: The Hudson River Greenway north of 181st St to Dyckman St is closed due to reconstruction; it needs it! Recommended re-route is 182nd St overpass> 181st St> Cabrini north> 190th St> Overlook Terrace> 187th St>Broadway, north> Bennett Av>. You will be doing the first half of the descent from Ft Washington Ave on Overlook to 187th to Broadway going north, then taking a left onto Bennett. You will now be back on the route. I did not update the GPS file or the cue sheet.

The proper name for this road is Henry Hudson Drive, but we in the NYCC and the rest of the NYC cycling world call it River Road.
