About this event

 




Join us for the Staten Island Perimeter Patch Ride! Earn your patch by completing all 5 borough perimeter rides. This one’s a 39-mile journey through greenways, industrial zones, and historic neighborhoods — a mix of old and new Staten Island. Expect mostly flat terrain with some low-grade climbs, perfect for shaking off the winter rust.


We’ll meet at 9:30 am at St. George Ferry Terminal on Staten Island.


The pace will be in the upper moderate range (around 14 mph on the flats) — we do want to get through it. Lunch is planned just past the 20-mile mark. Distance is 39 miles, so if you sign up, please be ready to roll from start to finish. If you leave the ride early, fuggedaboutit — no patch credit for you. Dem be the rules.


Be sure to hit the restroom at the terminal or on the ferry, as the first restroom stop isn’t until about mile 11.

What to bring: Spare tubes, tools to fix a flat or remove a wheel with disc brakes, hand pump or CO2, 2 water bottles (electrolytes + water are ideal), snacks, and sunscreen.
