Summer Streets 2012 kicks off for the first of three consecutive Saturdays.

Nearly seven miles of roads will be closed to cars from 7 a.m. until 1 p.m., allowing runners and cyclists to hit the pavement.

Along the way people can enjoy features including a rock climbing wall and a 160 foot-long zip line.

The route runs from the Brooklyn Bridge north to Central Park and mostly along Lafayette Street and Park Avenue.
