This year, Bike New York has changed the registration process for the Five Boro Bike Tour. Because last year’s ‘first come, first serve’ registration resulted in the ride selling out in under 36 hours, they are using a lottery system this year. This new process could result in a greatly diminished number of deaf riders.
Fortunately, Bike New York organizers have agreed to support deaf cyclists’ participation and extended a deadline they have for specific groups. A limited number of deaf participants will be allowed to sign up under this agreement (but we must have a minimum of 20 deaf riders to qualify). However, interested riders must be prepared to pay $80 immediately and contact Ralph (info@dvelo.com) NOW!
Because the number of deaf riders allowed to register under this process is so limited, Bike New York organizers cannot guarantee registration to all deaf riders who contact me. The opportunity to register will be offered to riders in the order that they contact me to express their interest. Riders may be asked to verify their deafness through a VP call.
Contact Ralph (info@dvelo.com) by 9 a.m. Eastern time tomorrow (Tuesday, January 10) to get your name on the list. Contact Ralph (info@dvelo.com) by 9 a.m. Eastern time on Thursday, January 11 to get your name on list.
