Team ALS Info

Each May, cyclists of all skill levels come from around the world to ride through all five boroughs of New York City on streets totally free of cars. For one day, the roads are yours, the bridges are yours, and the city is yours – there is no better way to experience NYC.

How do I apply to ride with Team ALS?

Interested cyclists are invited to apply to run with Team ALS by completing this interest form. All applications will be reviewed, and cyclists can expect to receive more information regarding their application status and next steps shortly after submission.

What are the costs involved, and what do they provide?
