- I cycle the George Washington Bridge from Washington Heights, Manhattan, NYC to Fort Lee, NJ via the North Sidewalk. There are 6 flights of stairs along the way! However, you get gorgeous views of the Hudson River and the Palisades.

Now I'm starting to see the usefulness of these videos. I never cycled through George WashingTon Bridge before so this very helpful.
Been riding over the GW for over 50 years, my grandfather used to ride over it on a fixed wheeled racer. Take it easy with the criticism of the bike lanes. Remember when they built this bridge in the early thirties it wasn’t intended for cycling,! Just to update everyone the north side walkway is closed for construction and the Southside bike lane has NO stairs
Thank you so much for recording this. I’m planning to go to New Jersey this year for my TH-cam channel. Since now all the bridges are accessible to walk across the bridge for free. Since I live in Manhattan near the terminal of W178st. Thank you. It’s going to be easy for me to remember. Have a great day. 😇👍.
From a Dutchman perspective regarding cycling, this is absolutely insane!.
Wow this is crazy , so much money this bridge makes a day and they can’t build a proper straight bike lane with no stairs , wow big 👍🏽 to all the people who go tru this
I think you got across by bike faster than like 70% of traffic does
Omg, so many stairs! Up and down all those flights just to get across!
Thanks for posting,this is wicked
Thanks for the video never got to see the right side of the GW Bridge I always rode on the left.
It’s June 19 , 2024
Thanks for the video too many damn stairs I was gonna do it tomorrow but I’ll pass thanks for the ride...
those stairs are a hassle lol I’m glad I saw this video before doing it
On November 20, 2021 I planned to go to Ft Lee park to video record the "Retreat from Fort Lee". Looking to get some videos and photos of the NYC skyline I chose to walk rather that take the bus. The south side was open. There were a few breaks between the high fencing that I could get a lens through so I didn't make many stops. Hoofing at fast pace it took me around 20 minutes to cross. This year on the 19th I opted to drive. No bridge videos, but great event and Hudson River videos. BTW: George Washington lost the battle but won the war. LOL
Street view through the lens of a regular joe, keep up the good work.
This is very informative. I bet a lot of people don’t know where the walkway is since it’s kind of hidden and not close to the vehicle entrance.
The only "big bridge" that I recall riding my bike on is the Brooklyn Bridge. No stairs there!
How the hell do you do this? I would be scared to death!
That is the bridge I want to walk and ride over in the near future.
Born and raised in NYC and I’m just finding out that you could WALK across the GWB 🤦🏽♂️…
as a dutch person I forgot to do that when I was In NY, atleast now I have an idea of the view thx!
