Partnering with the Office of Bronx Borough President, Vanessa L. Gibson, the Tour de Bronx is the largest free cycling event in New York State! This upcoming Tour de Bronx brings together more than 4000 riders from across the nation.
Organizers have also added a 10-mile family-friendly route, there is a 25-mile route, and the legendary 40-mile route to challenge riders. The race will kickoff from the launch site at 161st Street and Grand Concourse. The finish line is at the beautiful New York Botanical Gardens.
Flower Power At NY Botanical Gardens
While in the region there’s still time to catch the Gardens spectacular exhibit, Flower Power, that celebrates the symbolism of flowers as icons of peace and love, inspired by the 1960s hippie culture. This exhibition will include a flower show, botanical displays, photography, visual art, and installations. And, it continues through mid October, which gives riders and guests plenty of opportunity to explore the floral wonders.
