Sunnyside Becomes a Bike-Friendly Business District

Transportation Alternatives has been working all across NYC to foster goodwill for bicycling in the business community.

The first one outside Manhattan is Sunnyside, Queens.

Come along on this group ride that toured six of Sunnyside's 70 bike-friendly businesses, with a special guest appearance by Council Member Jimmy Van Bramer.
