so I'm over 105 miles total for last week (most for me), I also rode back and forth to work everyday.
How was everyone elses weekends??
Actually, I don't use Rt 7 much. I ride Rt 40 going to Havre de Grace.
My last trip out on Rt 40 was to Aberdeen from Essex (Eastern Blvd toward Martin's Airport > Rt 43 > Rt 40). On the outbound leg I averaged 19 mph (had a tailwind). I think I averaged just under 17 (round trip) with the headwind coming back.
Many of my routes are found here:

I've quit using RouteSlip because it won't render any of my routes on my PC anymore. It may be a JAVA thing. Don't know.
Then, I had routes on Bikely, but the Brits took that sight over, and as far as I'm concerned, ruined it when they launched BikeRadar. Here's some of my routes from Bikely via BikeRadar:

The last route I plotted, I went back to my "old stand-by", GMAP-Pedometer, just for it's simplicity. Here's the ride I did last Saturday (my ending mileage was 104 due to missed cues):
http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=1744236 - This route started at the Park & Ride west of I-83 on Mt Carmel Rd. The travel direction is clockwise to the Susquehanna River. Lots of climbing--according to the folks with us that used GPS, ~11,000ft worth by the time we returned to the ride start.
