I went out yesterday for a great 31 mile ride.  It was a new loop for me that I think will become one of my favorites.  It consists of some riding on 116, but the traffic is usually light on that portion.  You need to watch out for the gravel trucks for the first half mile, but otherwise it is smooth sailing.  I didn’t see a single car on Mays Canyon or Sweetwater.  Here is a map of the route.  I felt really good and did the ride in a little less than 2 hours.  I tried to keep my heart rate up in the 150’s for most of the ride.  I did hit 194 at the top of Sweetwater.  Oh, yea, I did have a first for myself.  I had a wild pig run across the road right in front of me on Westside Road.  I had just passed some tourists who were doing one of those organized rides, and I’m sure it gave the guy behind me quite a fright.  I had to hit my brakes pretty good.  I don’t think those pigs have very good traction on the road because that thing was skidding all over the place.
