Five Boro Bike Tour – An Awwwwesome 42 Mile Cruise in NYC

February 3, 2010 by APW

five boro bike tour

One of my favorite NYC events and experiences every year is the TD Bank Five Boro Bike Tour. This is an invigorating ride filled with amazing scenery – zipping on the loop in Central Park, heading south along the East River on the FDR, cruising on the Gowanus Expressway, and navigating the monstrous Verrazano Narrows Bridge into a Fort in Staten Island … all car-free!

This 42-mile ride is obviously a big draw – about 30,000 cyclists participate. But, it is not a race and that is what makes it such a great experience.

You get to ride at your own pace & take it all in! I have participated in this event for the past several years & suggest you explore this opportunity as well. Registration opened February 1st. If it sounds interesting to you, sign up now, because this Bike Tour always sells out well before the May 2nd event date. Tickets are $60. Check out the site for all details including a map of the course. Do you bike? It would be cool to ride among a group of NYC Dads …
