I see lots of reports of bikes down on them, right along where I ride, but, supposedly, it is safer bombing along the four-lane at 65 than it is in city traffic. I have a bigger bike I use now for most of my freeway riding, but the GZ is the only one I will split lanes with.

I am sure that the freeways in your neck of the woods are WAY WORSE, (I have already told you my thoughts on you and the GZ on those Cali freeways, ) the problem with the freeways in Little Rock is, that for the most part that is the only place in Arkansas where there are real freeways, as far as in town commuting anyways, so no one seems to know how to drive on them, if it was just the going 70 on the GZ on them, I wouldn't have much of a problem with it.
