If the tires on your bike are wider than 2 inches than you haven't got the real thing.
Mountain bikes are right out .
The best thing about Ithaca is that it only takes 15 min . If you don't know where the one way streets lie than you might as well forget it. I feel like a million bucks. The part I really hate is that these cars will pass within inches of your handlebars and I receive upon occasion fingers and horn honkings and all manner of other obscenities. Always ride down the hill.
