Bikes and Picnics in NYC's Chelsea
Runwell Bikes at The High Line Hotel
The High Line Hotel in New York's artistic and picturesque Chelsea neighborhood is one of the best boutiques in the area, just a few blocks from the High Line, new Whitney Museum, and Hudson River Parkway. Guests have always had access to free vintage bikes, perfect for exploring like a local, but this month, the hotel teemed up with Shinola, a Detroit-based manufacturing company that produces quality American-made products, to bring guests something special: a fleet of French-inspired Runwell bicycles specially designed for city biking. And it gets better: Each of the six bikes are custom fit with a handmade cargo box designed to hold a gourmet picnic basket stocked with Italian goodies from the on-site Alta Linea restaurant. What better way to enjoy a summer day in New York City than with a picnic and bike ride?
