Hillclimbs in Manhattan? Sure enough. Just don’t expect bucolic. We’re talking in your face NYC: speed bumps, pedestrians, open door hazards, traffic lights, and possible broken glass; the whole catastrophe. But warts and all, these are legitimate ascents. The bones underneath that thin veneer of civilization we call Our Fair City are genuine hills. Manhattan is blessed with a series of long ridges faced with steep escarpments; behold the sheer cliff face just above the start of Bennett. Here you get the benefit of climbing hills without crossing the GW Bridge and the routine of Central Park.
