It gets boring riding on an empty road after an hour or two.
One of my most memorable rides ever was a 5 hour ride getting lost on the roads outside of Blacksburg, I seriously considered moving if only the mothership had an office out there.

Now that was depressing, seeing what the next 4 months have in store around the northeast. Obviously our riding styles are different, I consider it a major annoyance if I'm unable to maintain a certain average MPH, and if my shoes touch the ground more than once every hour.
