NYC-PHL Greenway ride
From cheesecake to cheesesteak! The East Coast Greenway Alliance’s New York City-to-Philadelphia Greenway Ride travels from one iconic city to another, with lots of beautiful Garden State greenway in between.
The 2-day, 130-mile fundraising ride begins with a sweeping vista of Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty, making its way toward Princeton, the first night’s destination. On Sunday morning riders head to Pennsylvania toward an end-of-ride celebration in Philadelphia.
Proceeds from this ride benefit the nonprofit East Coast Greenway Alliance. In particular, your fundraising helps to accelerate the development of the route in New York City, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Roughly 1,000 miles of our Maine to Florida route is on protected greenways, and our organization is working daily to move the entire route off-road as close to 2030 as possible.
“It’s an extraordinary privilege to be part of this community of caring, generous, determined activists fighting to change the world. For a few days out of the year, we get to be superheroes.”
