Description: A 30-mile guided bike tour past many famous sights in Manhattan, including the car-free Summer Streets festival, Park Avenue, Central Park, the West Side Bikeway and Governor’s Island.
Summer Streets is an annual celebration of New York City's most valuable public space – it's streets. Summer Streets takes place on select Saturdays between 7am and 3pm. Miles of NYC’s streets are open in both directions for people to play, walk, and bike. Take a break along the route at one of our rest stops to enjoy free activities. Summer Streets provides space for healthy recreation and encourages New Yorkers to use more sustainable forms of transportation.
This route is mostly car free, but does has some short sections where we interact with light motor traffic. There is also some walking required on the pedestrian paths in Central Park.
We will be stopping at various points along the route to regroup and for photos, bathroom breaks and lunch. This is our easiest and most popular NYC ride.
The leader will contact you with parking and meeting information in downtown Manhattan. Carpooling may be possible, but plan on driving yourselves to downtown Manhattan arriving at 8 am and leaving at 6 pm.
