    This is Transportation Alternatives Tour of Staten Island. Here's how they describe it: "The 55 miler - Ride through a multitude of neighborhoods in Staten Island. Ride with your buddies on the 35-mile route until the first rest stop at Freshkills Park. After the rest stop in Freshkills Park, the 55-mile ride continues through Heartland Village, New Springville and Lighthouse Hill before reaching the Historic Richmond Town rest stop. Pedal through Great Kills and Rossville before circling back around along the eastern shore, for a third rest stop -- and beautiful ocean vistas -- at Great Kills Park. Continue along the waterfront to take in the striking views of the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge and New York Harbor before arriving at the Finish." We add a few extra city-street miles from/to a convenient parking lot close to the Verrazano Bridge. Beyond that.... I know nothing about Staten Island... other than I hear it's hilly. You must sign up for the ride. $45 non-members / $35.00 T.A. members.
