wow... you guys are out of your mind... staying off the highway will add a few extra miles to the trip, and it's already way to many miles... lol. have fun with that. let me know how it turns out.

I wouldn't do it because I don't have a super-low pushing board yet

oh and I don't want to skate through brooklyn and queens

Honestly it doesn't seem worth it. A long push can be really nice... and it is always something to be proud of; an accomplishment to talk about over beers, or something similar... but It just isn't a fun trip. Heavy traffic, crappy road conditions, plenty of exhaust fumes... etc.

If you want to go push... go out east and push... get out in the open space. Why look at parking lots and parkways when there are farms and fields.

Take the train.. don't push. Or make sure you have cash to get on the LIRR when you get tired of pushing.

Seconding what Jeff said. My best long pushes were through rural Maryland hills... ride down one, push up another, rinse repeat. I love it there

I was joking about pushing through Brooklyn and Queens... although I'm sure there are people out there too scared to do it
