The Tour de Bronx Comes to the Garden

Posted in Programs and Events on October 21 2010, by Plant Talk

New York state’s largest free bicycle tour, the 15th annual Tour de Bronx, is coming to The New York Botanical Garden!

There may be two rides; a leisurely 25-mile ride for all ages and skill levels, and a more athletic ride that clocks in at 40 miles, but both end at the Botanical Garden.

The Tour will take cyclists along the Bronx waterfront, through historic districts, and along great greenways, including the new Pugsley Creek Greenway and on the Sheridan Express (closed expressly for this event).

At the Garden, cyclists will be able to park their bikes and enjoy an end-of-ride festival including musical entertainment, lunch, and exhibits from community groups.
