You won't encounter long, uninterrupted stretches of open road, meaning the pace remains steady but deliberate throughout the 18.4-mile trip. The lack of highway miles makes this feel more like a suburban commute than a cross-country adventure. You should prepare for frequent turns and intersection management rather than high-speed cruising.
