NYCcentury.org /event_info/ map








35 mile -- East River Loop  This route is ideal for riders looking for more than a Sunday stroll. The route travels through historic Downtown Brooklyn, around idyllic Prospect Park, through the artistic enclave of Williamsburg and follows the East River all the way to Astoria Park in Queens. Route begins in Central Park at 7:30 am or in Prospect Park at 8 am. Finish between 11 am and 3 pm.




55 mile -- The Waterfront  This route increases the mileage, but with New York’s relatively flat terrain, it is a manageable route for a rider looking to challenge themselves. This route takes riders through waterfront views along the Brooklyn Greenway, including the majestic Verrazano Bridge and the famous amusements at Coney Island. The route eventually re-connects with the 35-mile route to the finish. Route begins in Central Park at 7 am or in Prospect Park at 7:30 am. Finish between 11 am and 4 pm. 

75 mile -- The Rockaways  This route is not for amateurs. Riders travel out to Far Rockaway, Queens and beautiful Fort Tilden Beach. The route takes riders along miles of Queens greenway, through the serene, car-free Forest Park and up to Kissena Park, before cutting west through northern Queens to Astoria Park. Route begins in Central Park at 6:30 am or in Prospect Park at 7 am. Finish between 12 pm and 4 pm. 

100 mile -- The NYC Century  The full 100 mile tour is for experienced bicyclists only. - See more at: http://nyccentury.org
