Title: Strong Island Rds Post by: 1.21GW on August 27, 2012, 08:27:32 AM I'm heading to a friend's place on Montauk for the holiday weekend. Taking the Duc.
I'm not familiar with Long Island so I was wondering if anyone has any good suggestions for a fun route from the city to east L.I. that generally avoids the highway. Thanks!

That said, once you get to the tip, its all fun. Went for a 3hr ride on Sunday through windy forest and farm roads. Good times. Title: Re: Strong Island Rds Post by: He Man on September 07, 2012, 12:32:18 PM whered you go>?

Oh and btw, that's what she said... :P That said, once you get to the tip, its all fun. |
