Did you know that Sugar Hill in Upper Manhattan is the hotspot for rare sightings of some 314 endangered birds? The Audubon Mural Project, a collaboration between the National Audubon Society and Gitler &_____ Gallery, is a collection of commissioned murals of climate-threatened birds located in and around the outskirts of Harlem where John James Audubon originally lived.

We'll ride around and check out the murals, wherever we can find them: on storefronts, building facades, window panels, and retractable security gates. This means we need to get out there super early before the gates roll up! We'll leave the start point at Dough in Brooklyn at 6:30am sharp, so be on time or you'll be left behind. 

We'll ride up Kent Ave, over the Pulaski Bridge, up Vernon Blvd, over the Queensborough Bridge, and cross over Manhattan to get to St Nicholas and the murals. After winding our way around Sugar Hill, we'll head back and end up at the 5BBC Summer Streets table (east side of Park Ave South just north of E 24th St.) so you can hangout with your club peeps and experience Summer Streets.

Learn more about the artwork and the birds on the Audubon Mural Project. Ride with GPS map of the route available here.

Helmets mandatory on all 5BBC rides! We have no stops planned for food or beverages, so bring what you need, please.
