Saturday I got up at 4:00 am. Drove from 6:00 am and arrived in the Parking lot and started riding at 8:07 am. An hour and 40 minutes later I arrived at Newcomb Hollow Beach:

I spent 4 hours at the beach then rode to the South Wellfeet General Store Deli via Ocean View Drive for a Chicken Caesar salad:

I was glad that beach has a simple bathhouse and an ice cream truck with cold iced tea and water. That helped me get off the sand and back on my wheels! :-)

I made it back to my car at 3:30. It's just about exactly 1.5 hours for me from the deli to the parking lot in South Dennis.
