TD Five Boro Bike Tour

There is no place on Earth quite like New York City, and there is no better way to experience it than by bike. This explains why, on the first Sunday of every May, 32,000 cyclists of all skill levels come from around the world to roll through every borough of New York City on 40 miles of streets totally free of cars. For one day, the roads, the bridges, and the City itself belongs to cyclists. Simply put, there’s no better way to experience the Big Apple, which explains why, over more than 40 years, it’s become a bucket- list pilgrimage for some and an annual tradition for others. The diversity, culture, architecture, and scenery of the many neighborhoods that riders get to explore are on display, from Manhattan icons like Radio City Music Hall and Central Park to outer-borough gems like the Queensboro and Brooklyn Bridges, while bands, rest areas, enthusiastic cheering teams, and helpful volunteers keep everybody’s energy up.
