East Hampton to Montauk Quickie?
OK, so I've been tying up loose ends the past two summers: Completing my coverage of the entire Connecticut south shore, the entire Long Island north shore, etc on a bike. I've got a day off this Monday and I am REALLY exhausted from work, but I feel like I want to strike one more ride off my bucket list.
I've never done the big "Montauk Century" that a lot of people from central Long Island do, but I figure if I ride from East Hampton (to where I have ridden from Greenport and Shelter Island) and do the twenty miles to Montauk Point, I can kind of claim to have covered the whole island from Manhattan to Montauk.
It's only twenty miles, but I hear it gets kind of hilly out there. Can anybody give me some insight, or maybe suggest a route other than the obvious? I'd be going on Monday, so traffic probably won't be an issue. Is there parking in East Hampton for the day, or should I take the LIRR?
