really it's not a huge deal... as long as it's not a windy day (though it's almost always windy on the coast) I can ride at 75 on the freeway no issues... other than when I have to pass Semi's. but you get used to it.

I like the back roads though... it's slower... but really makes me feel like I'm "out there" further from what I know... gives a bit more adventure to it.
