New York City cyclists can have their bike’s blessed and sprinkled with holy water this Saturday, April 26. Transportation Alternatives is sponsoring a bevy of cycling events, including the 9:30 a.m. blessing inside the Cathedral of St. John (Manhattan). The reverend will say a “BRIEF” few words, organizers promise, before sprinkling holy water on the congregated rides.
No word on when the blessing expires, but since it only goes down once a year, cyclists will have to hope it lasts at least that long.
The cathedral, at 112 St. and Amsterdam, is accessible by the 110 St stop on the 1 Train.
