Rode the Highway H to O route today. Having a co-pilot next to you to call the turns certainly helps when you're approaching a blind turn just over the hill. Props to my wife for doing a great job calling route info.

We took it slow and had a 24:39 time. Unfortunately, there are a few areas that will easily put you behind traffic, and a few others where it just doesn't feel "safe" to speed through. However I didn't stop the clock for those areas. I could definitely see shaving off some time the next time I run it. Lots of fun, excellent route suggestion.

Did you run just the H hwy? Or did you hit both? I know H was full of traffic the day I drove and O hwy had 1 car at hwy 10 and after that it was pedal to floor.

I ran both around 2pm today. Time was from a complete stop. The last leg of H after it goes through town, I was stuck behind about 8 cars, and ended up overshooting O. Hwy O had a dump truck on it, and he managed to be in a spot where I couldn't pass. (I don't cross double lines.)
