Bikes At Night Bike Tour
Written by Boston Biker on Jul 16Bikes@Night
with the Boston Preservation Alliance & Urban AdvenTours Discover Historic Hotspots Along the Boston Waterfront
Thursday, July 29, 2010
5:30 p.m.- 7:30 p.m.
Join the Boston Preservation Alliance as we team up with Urban AdvenTours to ride the night away and explore Boston on two wheels! The Bikes@Night tour will show you the city as the sun goes down and the lights come up, focusing on Boston’s beautiful and historic waterfront. Watch the sun set over Boston Harbor, hear about architecture and history, and enjoy a delightful summer night in Boston!
Our ride will include:
• Long Wharf: once the busiest pier in the busiest port in America during early colonial times and now home to the New England Aquarium.
• The Rose Kennedy Greenway: the 1.5-mile-long long series of parks and public spaces that now exists where the elevated Central Artery once stood.
• Fan Pier: the historic location of railway lines that linked Boston to the rest of the country and where you can now take in the modern architecture of the Institute of Contemporary Art and the Moakley Court House.
• The North End: the city’s oldest residential community full of late 19th and early 20th century architecture (and arguably the best restaurants!)
Ride departs from Urban AdvenTours, 103 Atlantic Avenue and participants should arrive by 5:30 p.m. for a 6 p.m. departure.
Cost: This event is $30 for Alliance members/$37 for non-members and includes: bike, helmet, water bottle, and tour guide.
