Twin Lights Ride is on Sunday, Sept. 29th, rain or shine!
We are pulling out all the stops for the 2013 Twin Lights Ride! With ocean views on some routes and treats like pies and chocolate fountains, cyclists will enjoy riding the back roads of Monmouth County, New Jersey, more than ever. The annual Twin Lights Ride begins and ends beneath the famed Twin Lights overlooking Sandy Hook. Twin Lights Ride is produced in partnership with the Highlands Business Partnership. The tour includes route choices from 31 to 104 miles, so there’s something for everyone!

If you have other questions, don't hesitate to email us at info@bikenewyork.org!"
"What times are the ferries please?"
"I did the 75-miler a few years ago before I lost 80 lbs. Now I'm planning to do my first (and last) century ride at age 63. Any advice?"
"[...] it. Get out there and strut your stuff! Our next and last organized ride of the season is the Twin Lights ride on the Jersey shore in late September. I can’t wait! In the meantime, maybe we’ll [...]"
