In 2020, the race was cancelled and in 2021, it was held with limited capacity to allow for social distancing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m feeling blessed. Grateful for a beautiful day. So excited to be here with 30 thousand-plus people who want to ride their bikes on the streets of New York without vehicles. It\u2019s amazing,\u201d said Janet Wilson, who participated in the tour for the first time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The tour is a fundraising event for nonprofit Bike New York to provide free bike education opportunities to New Yorkers. Organizers say the best part of the race is the participants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFirst of all, we have people from every state in the country, 32 countries around the world,\u201d said Ken Podziba, President and CEO of Bike New York. \u201cWhat\u2019s so great about it is not that it\u2019s largest bike event in the country. It\u2019s the most diverse and inclusive ride in the world. Look around. This is what makes it great. It\u2019s a microcosm of the world. This is New York City. \u201c<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Riders who have taken part multiple times say experiencing the city through the tour is something unmatched.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI did the tour ten years ago. It was one of the best things I\u2019ve ever done,\u201d says Kelly Santella. \u201cYou can\u2019t see New York City in any other way. When you\u2019re in a cab or walking but with the streets closed, it feels really safe. It\u2019s just phenomenal.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/parkchestertimes.com\/profile\/pt-reporters\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Five Boro Tour has returned with thousands taking to New York City streets for a 40-mile trip through all the boroughs.
