Tour de France is not having one of its 'etapes' (stages) in New York, it would be a bit of a stretch, neither is the Giro.
Bicycle fans can still celebrate their 2 wheels love with second edition of Gran Fondo New York which 'brings Italian cycling culture to the world's greatest city' on May 20, 2012.
Registration fee is $250 if you are in a competitive mood and $200 if you just want to enjoy the ride.
Registration closes on May 14, 2012.
