"The first of five waves of cyclists burst across the starting line in lower Manhattan at 7:30 a.m. The weather this year was markedly better than during the 2025 bike tour, when cyclists had to deal with a rainy ride."
"Podziba noted the bike tour made history this year by marking the first time a sitting mayor rode the entire course. Mayor Zohran Mamdani finished on Staten Island around 11:15 a.m."
"Nearly 50 years ago, this tour began with the love of New York City; hundreds of cyclists; and one very special sponsor, Nathan's Hot Dogs, Mamdani said in his remarks."
The 48th annual TD Five Boro Bike Tour saw 32,000 cyclists navigate a 40-mile course in windy conditions. The event began at 7:30 a.m. in lower Manhattan. Ken Podziba, CEO of Bike New York, noted the weather was better than the previous year’s rainy tour. Participants included riders from all 50 states and 60 countries. Mayor Zohran Mamdani made history by riding the entire course after speaking at the start. The tour celebrates nearly 50 years of cycling and community love in New York City.
