About this event

Join us for the final Spring Training Ride as we gear up for the Five Boro Bike Tour. You got this! This 40-mile ride will loop around Jamaica Bay as we make our way out to the Rockaways! This route will take you on greenways, over bridges, and out to the Atlantic for a refreshing beachside scenery. It’s a great way to build endurance, test your setup, and enjoy the coastal breeze before the big event. Whether you're a seasoned cyclist or just getting back in the saddle, this ride will help you prepare for the big event. Let's roll!

 

On the flats, we'll maintain an upper-moderate speed of 14 mph. According to RWGPS, the elevation is estimated to be 520 feet with a maximum grade of 3%. We'll meet at Grand Army Plaza 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.
