Pier 54 is set to be formally reopened on May 12 as the city’s only area designated for beginner bicyclists.

Behind the pier’s massive steel arch, Bike New York will hold free classes for adults and camps for children during the summer. The space, part of Hudson River Park, will also be open during regular park hours to parents with young children and anyone else who wants to give riding a go.

Piers on the West Side have long attracted families seeking places safe from traffic to teach riding.
