Thanks.

DH and I would have liked to ride the whole system of bike routes- like a 50 mile loop north and south. But we were leading a small easy ride for our 3 girls....it was like herding cats! Maybe DH and I will return on our own- it was an easy place to get to, for sure- a 4 hour drive.

It sure was DIFFERENT riding bikes on Cape Cod than here in rural New York!

For one thing, so FLAT!!! And the cars seemed so patient and courteous to the gazillion amateur bikers wobbling all over the roads!! I was surprised at how many people were biking without helmets. Bikers seem to have absolutely no fear of being hit by cars as they weave about wherever they please. ODD!!! They'd last about ten minutes over here in dairy land before they joined the road kill army. oh....and no road kill anywhere, not even birds, snakes, or chipmunks!!??? Are there no animals there?
Where we live, we routinely wind up and down steep hills, many with no shoulder, pickup trucks and cars zooming past us just a few feet away. We have to really stay on our toes. In the Cape the cars all seem to go entirely into the other lane to avoid you, and I didn't hear anyone honk even once.

I suppose I could get used to that. Hmmm....but I'd lose all my leg muscles without my old familiar killer hills here.
