    wow, those photos are amazing. Sounds like they need to limit the number of people on this ride or maybe stagger the start times.
    It is wonderful that so many people WANT to do this ride, it would be fun to watch from, say, a helicopter!

    I did not do the 5 Boro tour but I did recently ride in NYC.
    I rented a bike from a company called Bike and Roll. If you want to see NYC by bike this is the way to go.
    It cost me $50 to rent the bike all day and I had an unforgettable ride.

    My thoughts exactly! Maybe raise the entry fee (it's only $40 now, which is nothing compared to most rides) and limit it to say, 10,000. That's still a lot of people!

    Great pictures, Sprockgal. I'm looking forward to going to Astoria -- by myself.
