Edison, Metuchen Mayors To Go On 21-Mile Bike Tour On Sunday

EDISON, NJ — after being postponed for the past two years, the Edison-Metuchen Community Bike Tour is back this year. On Sunday, the mayors of Edison and Metuchen will be leading a 21-mile bike tour around the townships.

The community bike tour is being jointly organized by the Edison and Metuchen Recreations Departments.

“We haven’t been able to have the bike tour for the last couple of years so we’re all very excited to be out there this weekend,” Edison Mayor Sam Joshi said.

“I’ve continuously emphasized how important these open-air spaces and events are to me; as well as my dedication to creating more of these types of community moments that really make Edison such a special place to live. I’m really looking forward to being outside and seeing some friendly neighborhood faces on Sunday.”

The bike ride will begin at 9 a.m. at the Edison Municipal Complex and finish around 2 p.m. at the same location. Riders of all ages are invited to join in.

The participation fee $10 per person and will include post-ride snacks and an official 2022 “Bike Tour” T-shirt for the first 50 people to sign up. While the full ride is 21 miles, families can exit the tour at any time.
