3 Route Choices from 30 to 65 Miles
See RideWithGPS links and cue sheets below.
Pride Ride 30
This is a great route to push your limits and explore some new places.
Take a breathtaking ride over the George Washington Bridge to New Jersey to
tour some peaceful suburbs. This is the core loop for all the routes so you
are sure to meet some of your fellow Pride Riders along the way. Meet some new
friends at the rest stop before heading back towards Manhattan, across the
George Washington Bridge, and back to Riverbank State Park to celebrate what
you’ve just achieved.
Ride With GPS - 30 Miles
Pride Ride 50
To give yourself even more of a challenge, start off by heading up to
and over the George Washington Bridge and wind though some serene suburbs to
the rest stop. Mingle with other Pride Riders before heading further north
through the quaint town of Old Tappan and across the state line into Rockland
County, NY. You will pedal past some scenic lakes and towns and then loop
back south. You will have a chance to stop for ice cream before you meander
down the car-free Joseph B Clarke rail trail. Continue on quiet roads back
to the rest stop and then back down to Manhattan.
Ride With GPS - 50 Miles
Pride Ride 65
If you want to explore some more NY state park land, you’ll love this one.
Ride the same route as the 50-mile, but you’ll add in a loop up though
Rockleigh before approaching the rest stop to take a breather with fellow
riders. Then you’ll continue along with the 50-mile riders but head even
further north to Congers, NY and into stunning Rockland Lake State Park.
The lake is gorgeous and is a great place to take some photos or just
pause by the water. Then you will continue south and meet up again with
the 50-mile route, heading down the rail trail and back to the rest stop
before continuing south back to Riverbank State Park in Manhattan.
