I ride all over in town. Even places like Grace, Cary and River Road are all pretty nice (after ~6:30, like RBiker says). Weather's getting much better, although Sunday was a killer going into the headwinds. Rt 5 is great as it goes to country on the quick. I also end up going towards the airport via Williamsburg road on a regular basis.
I'm starting to load weight on my bike to get stronger for touring, so if you see a Surly LHT with panniers and a case of beer on the front rack coming up the Hill from the Market, say hello. I don't tend to go blasting around anymore, but rather cruise around, look over fences and see what's down this road...
