Simply, the best ice cream in New York.

Leaf through over 30,000 artists' sketchbooks in what may be the world's largest collection.

A spin around the park on a bike makes me feel good. One lap is about 6.13 miles. I've trained here for longer rides (including this London to Paris ride on a track bike that was 86 miles one day, rest on the second day, and 136 miles on the third day). I've sat there on a Sunday afternoon and have done as many as 10 laps (with rests in between). I switch in-between my carbon road bike and my steel track bike.

Beach approachable by public transportation and can be connected with a visit of MOMA PS1 Art Installation (Katharina Grosse House) Also less crowed than other beaches in NYC.

A good flat white is hard to find but this is one place in NYC that has coffee that tastes like it does back in New Zealand.
