Did it once. That was enough. Verrazano was tough at end. Lots of crazies. Right of passage for any rider. Remember, it’s a ride not a race. Bring extra tubes. Be prepared for rain and chilly weather (My daughter and I rode in the wet. Not fun). Ride defensively. Enjoy the sights. As a New Yorker, I can say it’s the fastest I’ve ever gone on the BQE (Brooklyn Queens Expressway). Have fun.
