i biked down in nags head over 4th of july week. yeah the roads are busy, but it's a well known beach, that is to be expected. the roads are flat, and it's the beach, so the wind is to be expected. it's an island so no matter what side of the island(s) your on, there's going to be wind, no big surprise. i found it to be a challenging and enjoyable ride. duck and corolla are worse to ride in then nags head because theres only a few roads to either side of the main strip, so theres nowhere for the traffic to ride then right on your ass. at least nags head has the 2 main roads then plenty of side roads to spread out the Escalades and Hummer's. I love the people down there more then anything, it was about 98 degrees and i had a Couple with 2 bikes on there roofrack stop me and offer me there upopened bottle of water, it was great to because i was empty on both waterbottles and fighting a 15+mph headwind.

all this obx riding talk makes me want to do a ride down there again, corolla to hatteras anyone? haha
