Yesterday was really nice. I’ve occasionally biked out to Rockaway for about 3 years now. Only once had I stayed a whole afternoon, at the behest of a friend (I was ill-prepared, having to swim in my underwear). It makes sense that more people are riding out there, it’s rather accessible (only 15 miles, or an hour and a half bike ride from North Brooklyn). It’s false to believe that Rockaway is “blowing up” even if the crowd of people there is growing. There’s never more than 20 - 25 people within a mile radius. But I’m sure the lax law enforcement can’t be around much longer and the nude bathing/drug use will be the first to go.
