Glide past reservoirs, rowboats, and skyline views on a Cannondale e‑bike. This rental puts Central Park’s 47 miles of paths and Lower Manhattan’s riverside routes within easy reach for riders age 16 and up.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You roll out of the shop on a lightweight Cannondale Quick NEO and the city exhales around you: tree-lined drives, the chatter of joggers, and the occasional gull puzzled by traffic below. Riding through Central Park’s broad loops you feel the ground tilt in small rises and drops; the e‑assist smooths the effort so you get to read the skyline between maples and reservoirs instead of counting calories.
