Ken Podziba, Bike New York's president and CEO, emphasized that the Five Boro Bike Tour is not a race, but an opportunity to see New York City on two wheels. He stated, 'You ride across the five bridges, and you see the skyline in front of you. You're experiencing it at street level.'

The temporary chaos begins as Amtrak performs what engineers call a "cutover," transferring tracks and electrical systems onto the new fixed-span bridge over the Hackensack River. The old swing bridge, which is more than a century old, has long been a commuter villain, infamous for getting stuck after opening for maritime traffic. At times, workers have even resorted to sledgehammers to force its locking mechanism back into place, which ultimately causes ripple effects across the entire Northeast Corridor.
