NYC Ferry has teamed up with Brooklyn Greenway Initiative, the non-profit organization committed to the establishment, development and long-term stewardship of the Brooklyn Waterfront Greenway, to present the The Epic Ride!
Bike along Brooklyn’s waterfront from Greenpoint to Riis Park Beach! On The Epic Ride, you’ll discover hidden and far flung neighborhoods, pedal through city, state and national parks and take in spectacular bridge and city views along the Brooklyn Waterfront and Jamaica Bay Greenways.
Brooklyn Greenway Initiative is offering 20 lucky NYCFerry blog readers a $10.00 discount, with promo code – NYCFERRY2018EPIC
Epic Ride Route Map
The Epic Ride starts at 8:00am for the faster riders, and 8:30am for the leisurely riders. You can choose whether to ride 25 miles or the full 40 from Greenpoint to Rockaway. Riders will be fully supported by experienced marshals and mechanics along the route and refreshments will be offered at scenic rest stops. Continue the fun at The Epic After Party on the Riis Park Beach Bazaar with bands, food, complimentary beer and take a dip in the sea.
Don’t have a bike of your own? Brooklyn Greenway Initiative has partnered with Unlimited Biking so you can ride The Epic on a (men or women’s style) bike that will be delivered to the start and collected from the finish line.
By participating in The Epic Ride, you are supporting Brooklyn Greenway Initiative’s goal of completing a 14-mile landscaped route for pedestrians and cyclists that will connect neighborhood parks and open spaces from Greenpoint to Bay Ridge.
