No. 90: Trek Along The Bike Path
The Bethpage Bike Path offers a chance for both exercise and nature.
So, feeling like getting the ol' ticker pumping but don't have a health club membership? In Massapequa, who really needs one? Why lock yourself in a stuffy gym when you can instead experience the beauty and fresh air of the great outdoors while you get into that cardio zone?
The Bethpage Bike Path is a paved trail that runs from Massapequa to Bethpage State Park. Starting in the Massapequa Preserve on Merrick Road and running through a good chunk of the Massapequas (with the final stretch falling along Bethpage Parkway), the vast majority of the approximately seven mile path is lined on both sides by trees, grass, lakes, and bubbling brooks...the perfect compliment to any morning or mid-day outing, be it on your Schwinn English Racer or your Nike Air running shoes.
