Happy New Year! Now is a great time to set a 2014 riding goal! This will be the year you ride 40 miles in one day and made great new friends in the process!
Even though the famous TD 5 Boro Bike Tour isn't until May 4th, registration starts on January 14th, and the event has become so popular that it often sells out the same day!
Skip the registration headache and reserve a spot now with WE Bike NYC!
By registering through us, you are guaranteed the earliest start time, an awesome WE Bike NYC 5BBT Team tee shirt (performance fabric with a limited edition design), training schedules and fantastic company to ride with! See the city from a different perspective on this unique tour that attracts 32,000 cyclists from around the world and offers access to routes not usually accessible by bicycle, including the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway and the Verrazano Bridge to Staten Island! This 40-mile ride is truly a memorable experience for cyclists of all levels! If 40 miles sounds like a lot to you, don't worry, WE'll provide an awesome support network of other WE Bikers striving for the same goal!
WEBike NYC has claimed 25 spots in the tour! Our spots are a little more expensive and cover the cost of the entrance ($100 for skipping the line) and a t-shirt ($15). The total cost of riding with us is $115 per rider. If you register on your own, you are also welcome to join us for the day-of events.
If you are a female-identifying rider who would like to ride with us, please email events@webikenyc.org for payment instructions. First come, first served.
If you need some convincing, here are some pictures of all the fun the WE Bike NYC Team had last year!
