We were flying by cars and just barely got it into the 60's. It made me nervous and once was enough in my life.

I'm trying to up the distance that I can average over 20 mph and Friday evening I made it to 50 miles. Saturday I was looking to do it again but as I got going I could tell my legs were shot so I took it easy and saved myself for some golf after.
A quick diversion from cycling to say that your route is one of the most beautiful drives on the planet. Swan Valley is amazing.

Unless there is another route that I don't know about.
