I drove from Illinois to Estes Park, Colorado, and back several times
before the Interstates were built. I hated every goddam mile, until
we reached the Rockies, although Iowa was not as utterly depressing as
Nebraska.


The beauty of taking the two-lane highways now is that NO ONE else is on
'em.

It ain't like the old, pre-interstate days, when you could spend an hour
trying to pass a single truck. In fact, the motorcycling on these mostly
abandoned roads is wonderful!
