F that ride. Go do your own thing a get some coffee and lunch halfway. Take pics and your my hero. I ride the MUP 4 days a week and see nothing interesting. I'm easy to please.

I don't know where my camera is, I guess I should look for it.
I do have an old picture of the area.

Velo Vol more proof aero matters.
Some fit and strong cyclist, picked his day, rode his very aero optimized bike at just over 33mph for just under 3 hours.

Was going to put their actual website up but it doesn’t have pictures.
If any of you guys and gals ever go to the OBX, I highly recommend this place. It’s all the way down in Buxton, so it’s near the cape hatteras light house, about 40 mins or so from nags head. Their pastries are absolutely amazing, all home made. You have to get there early because every morning they sell out pretty quickly. When we were younger and off-spring-less, we would camp in frisco almost monthly and this was a go to atleast once or twice a trip.

#11 Oregon Ducks are relegated to ESPN2 today.
In that time slot, we OTA viewers have the choice of:
Wisconsin vs Northwestern (popular with the snowbirds)
San Diego State vs Nevada #whocares

That's a shame. I was thinking how one of these would enhance your lawn
Only $1,099, and you could really improve your swing.
