Are you sure you're talking about NJ?!

Actually something weird has been happening lately. I've noticed a lot more cars are giving us room, being nice to us and letting us though. We haven't seen a huge decrease in pass and buzz but they haven't been aggressive just people being stupid about how large their vehicle is and how fast we are going.

Next week I ride to Tuckerton (double metric) and the week after that Sandy Hook (century) for training (6/14 - Longest Day Double Century). I can't wait!
