We took Lafayette to Park ave then cut in by 59st to Central park when group of us did this 7 years ago. This way we cut in front and didn't have that much traffic to worry about. You always have to be on the defensive and ride faster than people around you.
5 boro is fun the 1st time if you never done it.If you have bunch of friends just want to have fun and mess around it is a great way to see the city and ride on highways. Don't forget to join Mergs for guinnes.

Another tip- some friends of mine typically ride up the west side highway bike path rather than suffering through the masses up sixth ave, then jump back into the group in Central Park. Helps them get ahead of the pack that way.
If you're familiar with NYC streets, it's not hard at all to find the quick ways of beating the traffic jams...
