> Isn't it fun to go pretty fast?
its the best, but only doable super early or maybe on the gravel (see  >>/111837/)

even today at 6.30 in the morning there was already an ebiker who was scrolling tiktok or whatever and slowly creeped on my half of the road coming head on

Damn, that's such a shame. Here I have like 5 different long stretches of road / loops with 1 or 2 turns where I need to slow down, otherwise free to go as fast as I like with maybe 5 cars an hour tops. If I had an hour more to ride each time I'd have even more such roads. Seems like there's always pros and cons to places, here there's no real flats or hills, only constant rolling terrain, but at least the cagie situation is top notch.

> Simply too many tourists cloging the road.
i remember when i was last in slovenia couple years ago with all the "ACHTUNG KOLESARI" signs and millions of ciclists on the main road.
But when I lost the main road, suddenly no cars, no kolesars, only cows (specifically the roads around Poklujka)

That's a real shame, but yeah if there's so many tourists then I guess it's not fun to ride and probably even dangerous. The only real tourist attraction around here is the Finnish Archipelago which is very popular in the summertime for cyclists, motorcyclists, campers, bikepackers etc. It's the only trip around here I don't really like to ride because of the cars and tourists, especially since the road is very narrow in certain parts. Imagine riding here with hundreds of camper cars, slow going bikepackers and motorists.
Difference between NY and NJ is stark. NY has huge 5 meter wide bike lane, signs that remind drivers to not pass closely and share the road, well maintained, etc

Second you cross into jersey, bike line is replaced with another lane of cars, constant signs to ride single file all the way to the side, and drivers HATE you. Everyone driving 3000kg SUVs passing within a meter
