I'm attending a charity event in Boston tonight and will be riding 32 miles home afterwards. I plan on leaving the event by 2am at the latest, than once I get clear of the city it's straight sailing down a rural route the last 20-25 miles home.

My only concern is that my route takes me past the access road for a max. security prison and tends to be a lot of cops in the general area, looking for anything out of the ordinary. I hope they don't hassle me for riding in that area at night.
Heh, I was stopped by a cop once who was all like "anything interesting happening tonight?", but once he got a clear look at my attire, my face and I told him why I was riding so late he smiled and told me I was a clever guy.
