    I agree with the others in the above comments! I ride alone most of the time when I am going to do a long ride. I carry a cell phone (turned on), and I tell others where I am going to be.

    I also have to ride on roads with no shoulders. I too, just ride as though the road was mine. Never had a problem. People are considerate. I think you'll be fine. Probably the best thing to do is to go down that hill, and just go aways down the road. Try it out. See for yourself. Be sure that someone knows you are gone, and when they should expect to see you back.

    You mention that you know of other cyclists go out that way. Anyway you can contact someone and arrange for a ride together?

    BTW- Good luck on your training. I think it is awesome that you have set this goal for yourself! Please let us know how it goes when the big day rolls around!
