Ever notice that the city of Cambridge is shaped like a bow tie? Come see for yourself, at the Cambridge Bow Tie Ride!

Our 13 mile tour through Cambridge starts at the Cambridge Main Library, 449 Broadway. We’ll meet at 10:00 AM for orientation and leave promptly at 10:30 AM. The ride will finish back where we started, on the library grounds, about two hours later.

It wouldn’t be a Bow Tie Ride without bow ties. We’re excited to be partnering once again with our friends at OoO Tie. Enter our drawing at the end of the ride for a chance to win a free bow tie. We have three to give away so you have three chances to win!

Want to start the ride showing off your good taste by sporting a new bow tie? Shop at the OoO Tie website and get a 20% discount using the code BOWTIERIDE2013.

Bow ties are optional but you can’t ride without a bicycle. If you need one for the day, Urban AdvenTours has a special discount offer. Call 617 670-0637 to make your reservation and mention our ride. Your rental fee will be only $25 for the day.

You can pick up your bike at Urban AdvenTours any time after 9 AM on Sunday and must return it by 6 PM. For an additional $10, Urban AdvenTours will deliver your rental bike to the Cambridge Main Library, where the ride starts and ends.

We’re excited to have support from a variety of food sponsors. There’ll be something for everybody. Tasty barbecue from Redbones, wholesome snacks from Trader Joe’s, sumptuous sushi from Fuji at Kendall, and an assortment of extraordinary ice cream flavors from Toscanini’s.

Like all our tours, this ride is free of charge. Thanks to our sponsors for their support.
