Spring has already been in the air in Greenpoint, though planning a summertime bike ride might seem like quite a ways off. But the Brooklyn Greenway Initiative—the non-profit building the Brooklyn Waterfront Greenway, a 14-mile bike and pedestrian path from Greenpoint to Bay Ridge—is hosting their annual Epic Ride event and you can save $20 off the final ticket price by nabbing an Early Bird ticket now. Plus, the money from your ticket goes to help build the Greenway and includes FREE BEER at the after party at Riis Park Beach. Sign us up!Continue reading →
To wake up at 6:30 am on a Saturday, you must be nuts, you say? Maybe I am. But I woke up hella early because I was going on the Epic Bike Ride! Just a quick rundown: it’s 40 miles, from Williamsburg to the Rockaways, taking the coastal route of Brooklyn.
Epic Bike Ride was organized by the Brooklyn Greenway Initiative. These are the fine folks who have been working with the DOT on the Brooklyn Waterfront Greenway, which is a 14-mile landscaped route, physically separated from traffic with separate paths for pedestrians and cyclists. When complete, the greenway will connect neighborhood parks and open spaces from Greenpoint to Bay Ridge. IMAGINE! Oh, the places we’ll go! Continue reading →
We are currently recruiting 60 marshals and other ride support volunteers (non-riders) for this 600 person ride. If you are an experienced cyclist, you can ride free by serving as a ride marshal.
Mandatory marshal training and orientation will occur the evening of Tuesday, July 10th. Non-riding volunteers will help with coordination, directing riders, registration at ride starts and help with the end of the ride.
