Is this the right place for this thread even? I couldn't find one about it.
I've pretty much ridden this route before and it's fun.

I've ridden it each of the last 2 years... and I will most likely do so again this year.

We have done all of them. It is fun. If you want to maximize your fun, ride to the start and get there early. Line up and take off and ride it like you stole it until you get to the top of Ramsey Hill. Stop for a quick snack, then head down Summit and go back out to do the long loop. At the finish look us up at the MMRB table. Then ride home. Depending on how far you live, that will make at least a 50 mile day.

I just registered. If any BL'ers want to ride together, that might be fun, because last year I just ended up racing roadies.

done...
that was a pretty good time. I ended up doing the lillydale loop twice on the long route. No idea how many miles i did. I also ended up heading left near the finish for about 2 miles before i realized that the finish wasnt that direction. I connected up with all the folks on the 15 miler at that poit and back to the finish.
all in all.....just about 3 hours. Lots of cool bikes seen!
