6-7 - halfway out long island

I think I set a record.  My bike was on:
- Bike lanes in nyc
- elevator
- subway - out to rockaway beach.   Who knew there was a nice ocean beach within nyc city limits
- beach boardwalks in rockaway, Atlantic and long Beach
- nasty 4 lane commercial highway, 10 miles out of the way to avoid the no-bikes-allowed Loop Parkway
- lovely bike trail down to, and along, Jones beach.
- decent biking on shoulder of Parkway out to gilgo beach
- illegal biking across Moses causeway to fire island
- deserted highway biking on fire island
- main 'street' (golf cart width) on fire island
- boardwalks through towns (picture)
- boardwalks through dunes
- sand.  Google said these were 'roads'. Had to walk at least a mile, which meant I missed the 4pm...
- ferry from cherry grove to sayville
- suburban roads in blue point, where Dan used to live
- another busy commercial highway up to airbnb  in coram
Total - 64 miles.  Zero vertical, except over bridges.   Really - zero.
