Ride with Grassroot Soccer in the 2012 TD Five Boro Bike Tour on May 6th

Riders on bridge

Hosted by Bike NYC, the Five Boro Bike Tour is a traffic-less 42-mile tour of all five Boros in New York City held on May 6, 2012. Starting in lower Manhattan, riders will head north through the heart of Manhattan into Central Park and continue on to historic Harlem and the Bronx, returning south along the East River on the FDR Drive. From there riders cross into Queens and then Brooklyn, to take over the highway before making the thrilling climb up—and down—the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge to Staten Island.
