4 Boros and a Beer



Sunday, May 7th is 5 Boro Bike Tour
http://www.bikenewyork.org/BNY-TOUR.htm

• Meet up on Sunday morning at 9:30am at the Starbucks near City Hall, at 196 Broadway and Fulton.

• We leave promptly at 10am (or whenever the bike course lightens up).

• The ride's course is blocked off from road traffic!

• Easy ride. I've seen grandmothers, families and kids do this ride. Just take your time.

• We end the ride at the famous Brazen Head in Brooklyn.

• Escorted rides back over the Brooklyn Bridge for the return trip home sometime later...whenever.

What to bring:
1. You, a bike, and a helmet
2. A light windbreaker (morning may be chilly)
3. A water bottle
4. A spare inner tube (buy a spare inner tube for your bike as it's easier to change a flat than to patch one).
5. Money for beer (Happy Hour from 2pm -6pm!)
6. A small camera (charge your battery!)
7. Charged cell phone

Need a bike? You can rent one for the day or purchase a cheap one.
