anyone got a link to a cue sheet with a good sized map that follows the route? I'm doing the MS ride down to Provincetown..but im going the 175 over two days. i'm looking for something i could try doing in one day (so quickest, shortest route possible)

Not in Eastham, there aren't any shoulders. But Route 6A is and is very scenic. Route 6 north of Wellfleet is better but I'd still stick to the back roads as much as possible

check out outriders.org for their cue sheet from boston to P'town or the Claire Saltonstall route for suggestions.

The cape portion of this route looks pretty good.
For the off-cape portion, I would suggest you use the cue sheets for the 75 mile MS route, it might be a tad longer but it's a lot nicer than riding with all the traffic on routes 18 and 58
