Join us for a Spring Training Series as we gear up for the Five Boro Bike Tour! Our second ride will be 35 miles in distance to City Island/Orchard Beach. This ride will take you through scenic Bronx routes and out to the "New England of NYC" for a rewarding ride and maybe even some fresh seafood. It's a great way to build endurance, fine-tune your gear, and enjoy the fresh spring air. Whether you're a seasoned cyclist or just getting back in the saddle, this ride will help you prepare for the big event.
On the flats, we'll maintain an upper-moderate speed of 14 mph. According to RWGPS, the elevation is estimated to be 1,228 feet with a maximum grade of 12%. We'll meet at Dinosaur Playground at 10 a.m. with wheels down sharp at 10:15 a.m. Please bring the standard cycling accessories such as spare tubes, tools for changing a flat tire, hydration, and bike food. Helmets are required at all times. There will be no make-up rain dates. If a ride is canceled due to inclement weather, we encourage riders to ride during the week to prepare for the next ride date. The ride destinations are subject to change. Check your email and the website at least two hours before the scheduled meetup to see if there have been any changes or delays.
