Dirt 101 (dirt101.nyc) is a free celebration of riding bikes on rough/loose and otherwise dirty surfaces here in NYC. August 12, 2017. Over 115 men and women signed up for a day of off-road fun.
The 2nd Annual Dirt 101 Festival is a free event for men and women, taking place on August 12th at Cunningham Park in Queens from 9am to 4pm.
