Ferry
Roundtrip ferries take you (and your bike) from Pier 11 in Manhattan to Highlands, NJ on the morning of the ride and back to NYC afterwards.
If you’ve already registered for the Twin Lights Ride and need to add ferry service, you may purchase tickets ($65 roundtrip, cash or credit card) from Bike New York staff at Pier 11 in Manhattan on ride day. Ticket availability is limited, and is first-come, first-served.

NOTE:
- 75 and 100-mile riders must take the 5:45AM ferry
- 55, 30, and 15-mile riders can plan to take the 7:45AM ferry
Please give yourself ample time to arrive, check in, and board boats—we recommend getting to Pier 11 30 minutes before your scheduled departure.
