Head just south of Middletown to Durham! there's a loop I do to clear my head that takes me around by Lyman orchards, south through Durham main st and then take a left on higganum rd after the Dari serv. It brings you out at higganum. Then I just take 154 up back towards Middletown. It's gotta be really dark at night so take care.

If you want longer drives I also like going south on 77 or 79 out of Durham.

Yikes.

Thats a good mass pike lesson in general, I really don't care what Friday afternoon traffic is doing. 72 in the right lane is my jam.
