This Sunday is NYC’s Commerce Bank Five Boro Bike Tour. Please keep this in mind when traveling throughout the entire NYC on Sunday – as there are many street closures.

The tour – which has 30,000 bikers – starts in Lower Manhattan at 8:00AM, heading north to Central Park and continuing on to Harlem and the Bronx, returning south along the East River on the FDR Drive, crossing into Queens and then Brooklyn, before crossing the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge to Staten Island. The detailed route of the Bike Tour is available by clicking HERE.

The Bike Tour moves through the five boroughs on a timetable. The front of the Tour travels at 15 mph and the tail at 6 mph. The streets along the route will be closed during the Bike Tour.

The Staten Island Ferry will operate on a Saturday schedule, with half-hour service from 7:00AM to 11:00PM.
