Finding a gift for Father’s Day can be tough, but finding a gift for a dad that loves cycling can be a whole other challenge. What’s left to get the dad who already has multiple pairs of bike shorts, his own custom bike seat, and even a silk bicycle tie (to show off his love of cycling while he’s at the office, of course)? If finding a gift for dad has your gears spinning in place, allow the team at Unlimited Biking to offer some suggestions. This Father’s Day, why not take dad on an Unlimited Biking tour?
Nothing says family fun like biking Central Park. On a two-hour bike tour of the 800-acre park, you and dad will see all the attractions that have made Central Park the premier destination for families exploring New York City. You will see sights such as the movie-famous Bow Bridge, the ancient Egyptian Cleopatra’s Needle, and the aptly named Sheep’s Meadow. Dad will have a blast learning the stories behind all these famous landmarks while getting a quick workout pedaling through the park.
It’s one thing taking a cab over the Brooklyn Bridge, but taking a two-hour tour of this New York City icon on a bike will give dad an experience he’ll never forget. Ride across the 135 year-old bridge with its limestone and granite towers and wooden planks while one of our expert tour guides shares the daring history behind this nineteenth century engineering feat. After this tour, neither you nor dad will view the Brooklyn Bridge in the same way.
3. Sensational Park and Soul Bike Tour
On this five-and-a-half-hour tour, you and dad will ride through Central Park’s +800 acres and then experience a real live gospel church service and sample soul food in Harlem. As a bonus, your tour guide will show you a few hidden spots along the route that will be sure to impress dad.
For the cyclist dad that likes to venture off the beaten path, we have the Surprising Bronx Bike Tour. During this seven-hour tour, you, dad, and our tour guide will visit Yankee Stadium, Edgar Allan Poe’s Bronx cottage, as well as the neighborhood of Belmont, NYC’s last true Little Italy. Dad will return to the office on Monday with newfound street cred and a unique experience he’ll be sure to brag about to his buddies.
And for those dads that like to do their own thing, join us for an All Day Bike Rental from any of our store locations for an adventure around New York that you both will remember!
