About

Bike MS New York City is a one-of-a-kind experience that allows you to see Manhattan in a way you never have before. Ride 30 miles traffic-free around the outer edge of Manhattan on the East & West Side Highways. Journey through the Battery Park Tunnel at the southern tip of Manhattan, and experience views of the George Washington Bridge, Brooklyn Bridge, and other New York City landmarks you can only see on this route. For an added challenge, journey across the George Washington Bridge into New Jersey for the 50-mile route with expansive views of Manhattan as you make the climb up 9W. Whether you’re a casual, novice, or experienced cyclist, you’ll feel right at home at Bike MS.

Bike MS is more than a ride of a lifetime—it’s the largest cycling series in the world and the #7 peer-to-peer charity event in the country. Bike MS raises more money than any other cycling event for any other cause. To date, Bike MS has raised more than $1.3 billion to stop MS in its tracks, restore what’s been lost, and end MS forever.
