September 13, 2009 is New York Harbor Day, one of the culminating events of NY400 Week (September 8–13), a celebration of NYC’s revitalized waterfront and continued friendship with the Dutch. Bike and Roll New York is proud to be a Harbor Day sponsor, offering free rental bikes throughout the day at six major waterfront sites. So please join us – grab a bike, take a ride, and enjoy the gorgeous New York Harborway.
