Scenic ride through diverse 'hoods, including Prospect Park, Ft. Tilden and the Rockaways, over neat bike paths, with beaches and shorelines along the Atlantic Ocean.  There will also be some sobering parts, such as Breezy Point, the Flight 587 Memorial, Long Beach Boardwalk (newly reopened one year after Sandy), and Point Lookout. Mostly paved or wooden boardwalk (though with just a teensy bit of rough roads plus some stretches with a bit of wind-blown sand).  Finish at local fave Gino's of Long Beach (pizza) across from the LIRR station.
