I was into the last two miles before I was passed from behind by the first car!
Granted it was Sunday...but biking with no cars is the best. (I did pass two Amish buggies on their way to church. The second buggy was going 16 mph...took some room to pass that one)

Congratulations, no cars are the best! I’m fortunate to have a great trail system a mile from my house which I can get to on low traffic roads.
Trail is very heavily used in “prime times”, so getting out early is key, otherwise you have to slow down sometimes when there are walkers/slow riders in front and oncoming users in the other lane.
