Tour de Trail: NYC – August 15 | North New Jersey to Ground Zero, and back


This inaugural 32-mile ride begins at Liberty State Park in New Jersey, crosses the George Washington Bridge, and concludes at the 9/11 Memorial in Lower Manhattan. The route offers views of the New York skyline and passes key landmarks reflecting the city’s resilience.


Participants will also have the option to visit the 9/11 Memorial Museum and enjoy a group lunch at O’Hara’s Restaurant and Pub, a historic establishment near Ground Zero known for its connection to the first responder community and its role in post-9/11 recovery.

Each event along the Trail is designed to honor the memory of those lost on September 11, 2001, while fostering community connections and encouraging healthy, reflective engagement with history. These rides offer a meaningful way to experience the landscapes and landmarks that tell the story of resilience and unity.


All proceeds from each event support the continued development and maintenance of the 1,500-mile September 11th National Memorial Trail, ensuring its impact endures for generations to come.
