Drop off the Palisades ridge into the valley below, in Bergan County, NJ, one of New York's "bedroom communities." The route takes you to Cresskill and the Bagel Cafe for a snack. Climb back up the Palisades via Walnut St. Stop at the top and gaze through the gate at the mansion that faces the top of the hill. It was built by Joseph Kennedy (father of Jack, Bobby and Ted) for movie star Gloria Swanson and was known as Gloriacrest.
Ride starts and ends at Dinosaur Playground on Riverside and W. 97th St.
