I usually drive on the same "short-cut" routes that I ride a bike on--although I don't cut through quite as many vacant lots, alleys and small streams when I'm in the car! If I'm the driver, the passengers are saying, "Are we lost? I've never been here before.... I thought we were going to the movies.... Where the hell are you taking me?" They seem pleasantly surprised when we finally do end up at the place we set out for.
