The 5 Borough Bike Club (5BBC) will be joining the Polar Bears to ring in the new year on Coney Island. Afterwards, to warm up, they'll make a sprint up to Brighton, with a visit to the Saint-Petersburg Global Trade House, for some Russian Xmas shopping (which is still to come, a week after), and some new year's Russian broth (free-flowing carafes of vodka, or so they say) at the infamous Georgian restaurant, Primorski's.
