Having done a lot more training in the intervening year, I minimized the "hilly" part in my own mind. Though rather short, the course deserves respect. Wished I had my inclinometer out there; a couple of those hills have STEEP sections. Scenery is really nice and I love the local support for the ride (lemonade & cookie stands). Still trying to figure out if the unicyclists are hard-core riders with determination deserving admiration or just plain crazy.

I enjoyed running it last year, and I even rode from my house to the ferry and back- adding ~16 miles to the trip.If people want to remark about having an assist, they should feel shame for driving to the ferry dock.

We went over on the 9:15 ferry and were at the ending chili station at about 12:40 I think. I saw plenty of "funny-looking bikes" but no RED funny-looking bikes.
