Quick ride by bicycle from East New York to Long Island City

Kick off your ride in East New York—a bustling neighborhood in Brooklyn with a rich mix of cultures and history. You'll be winding through a mostly quiet road route, perfect for cyclists who prefer a relaxed vibe over the hectic pace of busier streets. The path is primarily asphalt, so you can expect a smooth ride for most of your journey.

Pedal your way past residential areas dotted with local shops and street art that reflect the vibrant community spirit. You’ll experience a gentle ascent and descent, with the entire route feeling relatively flat, making it great for riders of all fitness levels. About 5% of the ride will even gift you with a cozy cycleway experience, which is always a plus for those moments when you want a break from sharing the road.

As you approach your destination, you'll find yourself in Long Island City. Known for its stunning waterfront area and breathtaking views of Manhattan, LIC is a perfect end to your cycling adventure. Why not reward yourself post-ride with a stroll through one of the many art galleries or a relaxing pit stop at a riverside park? Enjoy the ride!
