Cool things that happen in NYC - part 3

Today, Saturday, started off like any other Saturday. Sleeping in, getting ready for the day slowly, hearing sirens, then hearing more sirens, then hearing A LOT of motorcycles?? Wait, that doesn't happen every Saturday.

Turns out a whole bunch of motorcyclists went for a ride up and down West Highway. I'm guessing for a rally of some sort, still waiting to hear what it's about. There were easily over 200 motorcycles, and I'm probably guessing very low. They stopped traffic for at least 10 minutes. 

You can see them stopped on the one side of the highway, while still riding through on the other side. Yes, they went up one way and then came back the other way. 

They themselves got into a little bit of a traffic jam...

...so they got off their bikes and talked with each other! 

Another cool thing that you don't know about and it just happens right outside your window in New York City.

What were the sirens for? Did they have police escort? Also really liked all the sailboats in the other blog, would have been really neat to see in person
