Event Details
New Route! This year we're mixing things up! After many years riding the same route, we have revamped the ride and will be sticking to midtown and the UWS in Manhattan.
This is a fun, festive holiday 15-20 mile bike ride through the streets of New York, starting in Central Park and ending at Amity Hall Uptown. We'll ride a leisure pace and aim to stick together.
The ride is unsupported and all riders must wear a helmet and bring their own nutrition / hydration, a flat repair kit, and front and rear lights for safety. Riders must ride at your own risk and obey all rules of the road. While we encourage you to have fun, take pictures and decorate your bikes, it's important that your decorations do not interfere with the functionality of your bike or safety of yourself and others. Wreckless riding will not be tolerated. It's December so DRESS WARM! Don't forget to bring money and ID for the after party!
