I second this. I have a friend who was hit by a car on Route 1 - a lady was coming out of a side road making a left, and didn't see him and basically T-boned him. Luckily he's alive, but with spine damage and a totaled bike.

Also, a Hopkins doctor just recently died on this road - he was off the road fixing his chain when an 18 year old fell asleep at the wheel and ran him over.

Be very very very careful! But have fun if you do go out!
