20 Years & Rolling: Cycle the Erie Canal Bike Tour Reaches New Heights
Biking. Great scenery. Fun people. Big city lights and charming small towns.
Sounds like a pretty nice vacation, right?
Add in Erie Canal history, moveable tent cities, and great food and entertainment and you wouldn’t be far off from Parks & Trails New York’s annual summer bike tour, Cycle the Erie Canal.
This year more than 700 cyclists and volunteers helped PTNY celebrate 20 years on the trail. And it was a truly memorable tour, with exceptional weather greeting riders each morning, and newly paved trail sections making the route more accessible than ever before.
Highlights:
- More than 700 riders and volunteers
- 37 US States, several Canadian provinces, and UK and Australia represented
- Riders ranging in age from 6 to 82!
Words don’t do the summer tour credit, so check out the official CTEC 2018 Photo Gallery:
If you missed this year’s tour, never fear. We’ll roll out again for the 21st edition on July 7, 2019. Registration opens in early January.
VIVE LA TOUR!
