Permits for Beach Bikes?

Very interesting. Then if the Feds do charge for a permit for a "beach bike", I wondering if they will make you carry a list of emergency gear like they make us carry in our 4 x 4 's now for driving on the sand.

They charge for a bike to use the Reserve at Plum Island! Now I ask, do you think the CCS would miss out on that revenue??

Back in the 60s we use to ride ballon- tired bikes, single speed, most of the air out, on Salisbury Beach. (think the bikes were 1940s vintage) Once is a while we'd get stuck but for the most part they worked suprisingly well. Haven't thought about it in years. Wish we had had these. They look remarkable for the task at hand.

I guarantee you they'll start issuing permits when 10 people are riding them out there

There was an article in the LI Fisherman several years ago about a guy who rigged a mountain bike for Montauk. But, the sand out there is all hard gravel and cobble.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
