West of here about 2-3 hours by car, there's lots of hills. Here, just parking garages and overpasses.

You want to check out this club: http://www.northwestcyclingclub.com/ They have big group rides, they congregate on Saturdays way out northwest off of highway 290

Antoine @ Long Point is a kind of trashy, but as you go further south on Antoine it gets better and better and more and more expensive until you get to where George H.W. Bush lives.
