    Tour of the Bronx +++ extras...

    This was one of my favorite rides last year. It begins on the Grand Concourse around 161st St. I park my car on Randall's / Ward's Island and ride to the start. It ends at the Bronx Botanical Gardens and I city street my way back into Manhattan for a spin through Central Park before returning to the car.

    It's 60+ miles with at least 2500ft of climbing.

    The Tour of the Bronx is sponsored by Transportation Alternatives. You’ll need to sign up for the 40 mile route and it sells out every year. I recommend going to the web site and submitting your email to be notified when registration opens… which will be very soon.
