MEET YOUR GUIDES
JOHN THOMAS MCKEE
OWNER
John, our Founder, had a long career in the Hospitality Industry and then in Finance in NYC.
He toiled for over two decades opening restaurants, winning several coveted awards including James Beard and Michelin Ratings for the restaurants he developed and managed; but after walking by a bike shop in his Upper West Side neighborhood, his curiosity got the best of him.
In a few short months a new passion was born.
John's vision for a tour company came after he had made his first trip across the Brooklyn Bridge.
What followed was excursions with his friends and family to all outstretching parts of NYC and beyond.
In his first cycling season he rode three centuries (100 mile +) -rides from Upstate NY to Brooklyn, from Montauk, Long Island to NYC, and a NYC Century all Borough Bike Ride.
He is now an advocate for cyclist safety and rights in NYC, supporting TransAlt and 5BBC.
He transplanted himself to Brooklyn, NY where he can be found in many local restaurants and bars chatting about his love affair of cycling.
If you meet him, don't be surprised if he asks you one simple question: "You wanna go on a bike ride?"
