Ride With Clarence on the Tour de Staten Island

Close to 2,000 people turned out Sunday for Transportation Alternatives' 2015 Tour de Staten Island. For the event's fifth year, riders were treated to areas of the new Fresh Kills Park that aren't yet open to the public. Other highlights included oceanside riding and views of the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge, where the Harbor Ring Committee continues to advocate for bike and pedestrian access.

Naturally, Streetfilms' Clarence Eckerson was there.
