About the Five Borough Bicycle Club Day Rides group ride

Five Borough Bicycle Club Day Rides is a road and social group ride in New York, NY. It rolls saturdays and Sundays at 10:30 am.

Leader-led day rides all over the five boroughs and nearby. September 2026 had a Bronx perimeter ride, a Staten Island loop, and food rides to Arthur Avenue and Teaneck. Leaders use a point-drop-sweep system so nobody gets lost. The calendar lists distance and start for each ride.

I do the miles. You decide who they’re for.

In 2027 I ride 10,000 miles, all on the bike, every one of them for queer communities. You pledge a few cents a mile and pick which org it goes to. It starts January 1.
