Trips for Kids Metro New York, part of NYC 10th Annual Adventure Day in Central Park

WOW WHAT A DAY! Trips for Kids Metro New York got over 265 bikers out at the Parks Departments Adventure Day! What a great space the Parks Department gave us this year to set up our obstacle course. Each rider really got a flavor of mountain biking! I want to send a bigTHAK YOU to the NYC Park volunteers who helped with registration, helmet fitting, and bike return- Kelly, Joanna, Jay and Mira - This allowed the team to give the riders and safer and longer ride. You are welcome at any of our rides and events!!! Thanks to Dawson and Campbell for getting and setting up the bikes, Thanks to Chris and Daniel of NYCMTB, Seth of the NYCranks and of course Eugene for all the hard work -helping rider, rider after rider, all 265 +, understand the attack position, where to look while approaching obstacles and all the overall encouragement and support you gave to make sure every rider had a great experience!!!!! It was quite a day!!!!
