About the Bike-a-thon

Break the Cycle of Elder Abuse Bike-a-thon is in partnership with Westchester Parks Foundation Bicycle Sundays.

Bicycle Sundays are a beloved Westchester tradition since 1974. Over 60,000 participants each year bike, walk, and jog a 13.1 mile loop of the Bronx River Parkway from White Plains to Yonkers.

For over 40 years, since community leaders recognized the importance of environmental preservation and promotion of a healthy, fit lifestyle, people have gathered on Sundays in May, June, and September to join the traffic-free route. WPF is excited to be part of an event that so many residents of Westchester County, and beyond, look forward to each year.

During Bicycle Sundays, the parkway is open exclusively for bicyclists, in-line skaters, scooters, walkers and joggers from Exit 22 at the Westchester County Center to Exit 4 at Scarsdale Road in Yonkers. The round-trip distance is 13 miles. The road is closed to automobiles in that stretch of parkway. Parking at the County Center lot in White Plains costs $8.

Rules and Regulations:

  • ONLY Bicyclists, in-line skaters, scooters, walkers and joggers are allowed; no unauthorized motor vehicles are allowed.
  • Walkers, joggers and slower wheeled traffic must use the right lane; faster wheeled traffic must use the left lane.
  • New York State law requires helmets for children under age 14, including those riding in bike trailers; helmets are strongly recommended for all wheeled participants.
  • New York State law prohibits children under age 1 from riding on bicycles or in a separate seat.
  • All headsets are prohibited. This includes but is not limited to music devices and hands-free cell phones.
  • All participants must be off the parkway by 1:50 p.m.
