Friends of Bike & Build and generations of alumni will come together to celebrate, reconnect with old pals and make some new ones, and swap tales from the road. We’ll have activities and social hangs planned throughout the weekend.

• FRIDAY: Pre-birthday festivities on Friday evening for those who will be in town. Round up your old teammates for a reunion, bring non-alum friends, or come on your own to meet new friendly faces ☺ More details coming soon!

• SATURDAY: Birthday bash! Join us for a trip down memory lane as we celebrate two decades of Bike & Build. More details coming soon!

• SUNDAY: Ride with Bike & Build at the Five Boro Bike Tour, where cyclists from around the world come together for a (car-free!) ride through New York. Bike & Build was selected as an official charity partner this year and we want to have the loudest and proudest team out there.

LODGING: We have secured lodging options for the 60 rider slots who plan on attending the Bday Bash and 5Boro Ride. In classic B&B fashion, this will mainly be comprised of couches and floors of alumni and others within our network who have graciously offered up their space. Please reach out to us at [email protected] if you anticipate needing lodging accommodations beyond this (such as a hotel room if you are traveling with guests or family).

Additional details about lodging options for the weekend and bike rentals coming soon!

B&B’s official ride team is limited to 60 riders, so sign up soon! Being on the ride team gets you some extra perks on the ride day (breakfast & lunch, early start wave, etc.) and counts as your ticket to all birthday festivities.

If you miss out on the getting onto the official B&B team, you can still get a ticket to the party & register separately with Five Boro.

Registration for the ride closes on April 21st.

Registration for the party closes when the dancefloor does 😉

The events are open to the whole B&B community so no need to be an alum – we encourage our build partners, hosts and other supporters who have meant so much over the years to come out for the weekend!

We’ll continue to add more info in the coming weeks so check back often. Feel free to also drop us a line @ [email protected]
