open road 

Somewhat lose term to define a paved road not close to urban agglomerations and devoid of urban traffic. This implies absence of roundabouts, traffic lights, heavy traffic and so on. Open roads usually have only one lane per direction

The term usually (but no obligatorily) can imply rough tarmac, sand on the road and potholes.

Commonly used by cyclists, riding on the "open road" also can imply being more exposed to the weather and being far away from help if something goes wrong.
"I expect to get at least some couple thousands of kilometres of training on all weather open road conditions out of this hub"

Can be referred to as ORS.
"When those guys saw I had on my 'Ride Free' t-shirt, they all gave me the ORS. Man, I was stoked."

Fogey/fogy /fougi/ sl. (early 18C+, orig. Scot) old-fashioned, stuck-in-the mud.

You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)
