Join Time’s Up! on bicycles or skates for a totally safe, magical, evening ride in Manhattan. Share the tranquillity of Central Park and the lovely tree canopy and grand vistas of the Hudson River from Riverside Park. The scenic tour continues down the greenway to the lovely pier where bicycles are welcome. After that, it’s a pleasant ride through leafy streets back to Columbus Circle.

This ride usually covers a bit over 10 miles and lasts about 2 hours.
