Is anyone familiar with this ride? trying to get a sense of the terrain. Looking for some challenges. Live in flat land and training for a century in NH.
thx! http://www.bgcride.org/

I went to college there! It's funny to see my old college town in print! It's rolling hills of the Virginia mountains there. The Skyline drive starts in Front Royal which is a half hour drive away. I'm thinking it would be challenging for a flatlander, so if you can go out on some windy days and ride into the wind, that always helps ne prepare for hills. that and strength training.
