I've done the ride a number of times - starting with the 30 and working up to the century. It's just an awesome event and fun ride. Routes are challenging but very doable (especially for you) and the sags couldn't be better - the boy scouts are sweeties.

Westher wise it's always a surprise. Done the ride 6 times. 4 times it was overcast, cool and at times, drizzly and 2 times bezesus hot. You just never know. Thankfully I did the challenging metric and century in cool years.

Scenary is awesome - it's a little bit of every thing from Hidden Valley, to the plains of Camarillo, up to the Rock Store. This is probably one of my favorite rides each year.
