Sometimes I just tell the wife I'm going out to drive "fast"... Here on LI one good place is Ocean Parkway by the beaches at night...... Not to many LEO's nor many people on the road.. Gotta try Calverton and the old Navy 1.5 mile runway soon...

Really more information than we need . . .but if you don't drink anything after about 6pm, you probably won't need to get up . . .problem solved.

Good time to drive on empty roads and more time to play with your fully optioned vehicle

I like to start my midnight rides at about 10pm when roads are more open and I can relax and listen to cd's. I then go to bed after midnight with a hugh smile on my face.

there is nothing like cruising the beach on a balmy night with the top down at 2-3 am when everyone else is nonie-nonie.

You gotta be single. If I lived alone, I think I would do it.

Kind of reminds me of a time in life when I was still out going strong at that hour. How depressing. Now we get up to pee and go drive around the block and feel like we are living on the edge. HA!

Working the afternoon shift is a plus for late night cruises. Get off at midnight and once in a while drive about 50 miles to my favorite stretch of road and let er rip. At the end of it i'm tired and ready to go to bed.
It's almost as good as sex !!

If you like the smell of pee in car, get a cat.
