If you have a spouse or friend that is willing to pick you up on a one way ride, just point your bike down wind and enjoy an amazing speed and distance - and then get picked up and driven home. A couple of Seattle to Portland rides were like that for me.

On the other hand, rode into a 20-30 MPH headwind which had me crawling at 10-12 MPH but the return trip had me sailing at 26-28 which was a blast.
