We did it again, and this time with the biggest group ever and in the fastest time ever (not that it's a race). Nearly two dozen of us gathered last Sunday at 220th street and the Broadway Bridge and began walking down Broadway on one of the most lovely days of the fall season. Highlights? After being away for two years, the Naked Cowboy was back, election fever was in the air and the marathon was as exciting as ever. Head below for some highlight pics and the video roster...

Oh I feel so bad now because I did the entire tour by myself (between 9:30-1 pm), and in order to catch up I was walking real fast.. but it looks like all this time I was ahead of the grp, thanks to ppl in the car repair shop. because they were not sure if you went up to the bridge or down the street, then they said you went down. There was even another person who came in late and in order to catch up wt the grp we walked together for a while and she got on the bus to join the grp but I do not see her in the photos..

Oh well, there is always next year, right?

great photos by the way... and Ursula is so adorable & looks like a big girl :-))

I love that you guys do this walk every year, but I think you are really missing out by only walking down Broadway while in Inwood.

Inwood Hill Park and the city's only freestanding houses are just west of Broadway. Much prettier than the industrial and scarcely developed are of Broadway from 220 to 207th streets.
