The Outsiders in partnership with Clif Bar are back for the fourth annual one-way bike Ride to Rockaway Beach! The ride starts in downtown Manhattan and cruises over the Manhattan Bridge into Brooklyn with a pit stop along the way in Red Hook. From there we'll continue through Brooklyn's most interesting neighborhoods before concluding in Queens at Rockaway Beach. When we get to the beach expect a rad, Outsider’s-only beach hangout complete with beach volleyball, and all the beach goodies you wish you had. Did we mention we’ll have some complimentary drinks from our friends at White Claw, Jefferson's Bourbon & the Liver Bashers? Yes, we have a lot of friends :)
IMPORTANT DETAILS:
We'll have a charter bus bringing people back to Manhattan from Rockaway Beach at 7pm. Please note there is limited space on this bus. The first 50 people who reserve their space on the bus will have priority. Keep in mind there are many ways to get back to Manhattan on your own which are listed below.
This event is BYOB (bring your own bike) and $20 x person. Don't have a bike? Rent one from the guys and gals at Unlimited Biking. See the details below, invite your friends and get ready to ride!
AND MORE:
If you rent a bike from us (link below) we'll have you bike picked up and once you get to the beach and brought back to the rental shop, hassle free... ON TOP OF THAT. We'll also be doing the same for you if you bring your own bike. You'll be able to pick up your bike from the store (meet-up point) the day after for a $10/day storage fee.
DATE: Saturday, August 10th | 11:30AM Start
MILES: 20 miles (in 2 hours, relax people!)
MEETING POINT: Unlimited Biking, 110 South street NY, NY
PEEPS: 100+
