It's very close to the Harlem-125th St stop on Metro-North, and on a weekend you can get out quickly to North White Plains, Tarrytown, or Greenwich for more interesting rides.
Lived in Stamford, commuted down to the City on the northern line for work. It's bike friendly but there are Just a LOT OF people, cars, taxis, and more people. I had to get used to riding in a city that size but it is magical. Living off the island of Manhattan would save you quite a bit dough for you to purchase your "NEW CITY BIKE"Lol.. It's all so close and paths lead over all the bridges in town which makes it reative.[emoji3] have a great time.
