Westchester Cycle Club's Golden Apple Bike Ride

Time to plan for Labor Day weekend! What are you doing that Sunday? Make Westchester Cycle Club's annual bicycle ride, The Golden Apple, the highlight of your weekend. Ride around lakes and reservoirs, through parks, and past historic homes and landmarks on some of Metro New York’s greatest roads.

It's a self-paced ride (not a race). Ride the Candy Apple 25, or the Golden Apple 45, 70, or 100 mile routes.  You may want to try our epic 65 mile Dirty Apple route!  There are sumptuous rest stops along the way - including one in Peekskill's Depew Park.  Cue sheets will be provided and routes are well marked.  Local bike shop mechanics will be available at the start, as well as driving the route for your safety and support. 

At the end of your ride, enjoy a delicious lunch and homemade gelato that's included in registration fee, listen to music, get a massage and relish the memories with friends old and new. Our local bike shops and other venders will be offering you bargains too good to resist. Please join us for the Best Golden Apple Tour: 2012.
