Any new rider around jersey city?

I just got into riding for around 3-4 weeks and I thought I would ask on here and hopefully finding a riding partner to practice with

Also does anyone know some good roads to ride around here? I commute in the city and it's kinda boring, and highway...ballz wrecking!

Thanks guys!

Awesome!
Do you usually rides on weekends? I always ride out on weekends if its not raining, usually no destination...just for the heck of riding.
I do plan to ride to manhattan eventually but how's the traffic over there for bikes?

I ride all the time, not just weekends i put about 4k on my bike since i got it a year ago.

riding in manhattan can be a pain, but i do it, the roads are very bumpy and the cabbies are nuts, you have to always be on the lookout, and dont follow cabbies too close they do sudden stops a lot and just change lanes randomly

20th Century Cycles, in Oyster Bay, would be a good ride.

When I was a kid my dad and I used to ride over to Ghost Motorcycles in Port Washington. There was a shop and then they had a huge warehouse full of cool bikes.
