      <title>B Ride with a Twist: Bradley &amp; Tweed Edition! (September 19, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p data-path-to-node="1"&gt;Get ready to test your climbing legs! We’re putting a twist on our classic B Ride and taking on two of the most iconic, infamous climbs in the area: Bradley Hill &amp;amp; Tweed Boulevard!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p data-path-to-node="2"&gt;Well-known to NYC area cyclists, these legendary ramps feature serious elevation, sharp gradients, and beautiful views at the top. Once you conquer Bradley and Tweed in a single outing, you’ve officially earned your stripes!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p data-path-to-node="3"&gt;We’ll keep the overall pace smooth and controlled on the flats and transitions, but when we hit the climbs, everyone digs in and digs deep!&lt;/p&gt;
