Jersey City Ward Tour
About this race
The Jersey City Ward Tour is back on Sunday, June 7th, taking you (and thousands of our closest friends!) on a 16-mile bike tour of our great city.
Now in its 15th year, the Ward Tour is Bike JC's largest event, and is our fundraiser for our year-round advocacy, education, and programming.
The Basics
- Starts at Exchange Place. Rolls out at 11am sharp. Coffee, music, and lots of bikes will be there from 9am.
- Returns to Exchange Place for vendors, music, and Ward Tour merch!
- All are welcome! This is a casual social ride, not a race. All riders ride together as one group. It is not self-paced.
- Skip the lines Sunday by picking up your bib early!
- Early Pickup times TBA. If you register now, we'll email you!
