Bike to Work Week

Read the latest information on this subject.

From May 15 to 19, thousands of New York City cyclists rode to work in celebration of Bike to Work Week. T.A. sponsored several events and convinced many city officials to ride to work.

Manhattan Borough President Ruth Messinger and Bronx Borough President Fernando Ferrer both cycled to work, and Council Members Tom Duane and Kathryn Freed joined T.A. for the public officials' bike ride.

Staten Island Borough President Guy Molinari and Brooklyn Borough President Howard Golden both sponsored breakfasts. And as he does most days, City DOT Commissioner Elliot Sander pedaled to work.

T.A. would like to thank those who made Bike To Work Week 1995 a success:

  • Bronx Borough President Fernando Ferrer
  • Brooklyn Borough President Howard Golden
  • Manhattan Borough President Ruth Messinger
  • Staten Island Borough President Guy Molinari
  • The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey
  • Toga Bike Shop
  • All the volunteers who produced materials, served food at the breakfasts, and helped get the word out about Bike To Work Week.
