The riding here is way better. Except when it snows.
I can go for 3-4 hours and never put a foot down. Sometimes cars come at the rate of one per 15 minutes.
Upstate is pretty nice for variety. Lots of hills, scenery, historical markers and well-maintained back roads. The only catch is that if you want to stay off the busy highways, you're going to be doing lots of climbing. So I'm learning to love to climb. I'll take sore knees over semis any day.
