Zero Avenue is one of my favourite roads to ride on. It is excellent for training as the section I usually ride on is 16km's of rolling hills. I am always amazed at this road, that is is right there beside the U.S. and sometimes not even a ditch is there to separate the two countries. Now I am not a world traveller by any means, my passport is fairly blank, however 0 Ave. must be one of the more unique roads in the whole world. A bare open road running along an official national boarder with nothing but dirt and tree separating the two sovereign nations. If I fall off my bike I will literally roll into another country! Now of course it is not the kind of road I would want to get off my bike and take a piss on, I always wonder how many sensors or cameras are picking me up while I ride that section. It is just a unique ride with not much traffic. I guess deep down I am always reminded to be thankful that we live in such a peaceful place in the world, that we can share an unprotected border with a world superpower and not need to be worried...at least I don't think so ;)
