Dear Neighbor,

 

Thank you for joining us for another week in review. 


We are gearing up for the 29th Tour de Bronx!  Tour De Bronx is an annual free cycling event that offers riders a 25-mile course through historic districts, waterfronts, and lush greenways. The annual event attracts both skilled and beginner cyclists and encourages alternative modes of transportation. This year, we are introducing a new 10-mile route and reintroducing our legendary 40-mile route! We can't wait to see you there. Registration is now open!


As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact our office at 718-590-3500 or email us at webmail@bronxbp.nyc.gov.

 

In partnership,

Bronx Borough President Vanessa L. Gibson
