For the second installment of Two Wheel Touring NYC, I felt it was a good idea to visit a less depressing place; so in this one I visit the Gateway National Recreational Area which consists of a plethora of places that lend themselves to summer based activities that would otherwise be nonexistent in a super urban environment. Also, super nice beachfront housing...what a stark contrast.

It’s a great idea. Really situates the location and topography for everyone not familiar with the area. That somehow gives a feeling of connectedness to what’s going on.

Oh of course man. I'll expand on the idea and maybe add some graphics to it for the next one as opposed to still screenshots... that might blow up my computer but it's worth a shot lol

@MickPsyphon 5 лет назад
@@Theillestrator1050 This is true. Coney Island aside, I still think that most NY'ers never see some ythe places you ride through on your videos. Either they don't go to far outside of their boroughs, or they use a plane to get where they want to be. 🙃 Coney is a place that everyone should check out, at least once though. It's been about 20+ yrs since I last saw it; and then it was pretty tough. They were fixing everything up when I was there. So I never got the full tourist fun out of it. A seagull did steal my hotdog!!! Left me with a bun. 😂

If you buy a Chinese kit like me, odds are it won't come with instructions and it might not even come with all the hardware you need. You will need self tapping screws to thread the plastic parts, you will need a soldering iron to shorten the turn signal wires, and you'll need to creatively reroute all the wires and such which might be the hardest part honestly. If you do, feel free to hit me up for help

Breezy Point? Man, what you don't know... The beach is public, apparently, but GOOD FREAKING LUCK REACHING IT. "Nicknamed the Irish Riviera, Breezy Point is 99 percent white and is the only U.S. locale where a majority of the population (54 percent) are of Irish ancestry". Breezy Point is cops and fireboys. They gated off the community to keep you (look in the mirror) out. Me, too. (I'm not a cop, either. heh-heh...!) There's reasons the destruction by Hurricane Sandy, with all the fires in B.P., got so much public press and support. Aww... City's gotta do right by Our Heroes. Gotta. GOT! TO! YOU HEAR, ME, MUTHAF...? Good. You make sure you got that. Now turn that bike of yours the fuck around and drive the other way and have a nice day. Have some fun Googling "Breezy Point Cooperative". You do so much, Ill' that makes the world a better place. Please don't start into envy of "nice houses" and "private roads" that make it worse.
