We did Party Pardee last year on our tandem - the full metric plus some since we blew past a right hand turn
This is info from Thom's HRM showing altitude. None of the climbs were significant. A few are mildly steep. We broke our chain (wear not because of the ride) on one. It was right in the middle of the ride. There's nothing as bad as the climb out of Emerald Bay for example.

Party Pardee Map?
Can you get a map before the race that shows the route for the 50K? I have not seen anything on the ride web site. I would like to drive the course the day before if possible. Thanks.

I think most organized rides do not post their routes online. It keeps the poachers away.

Party Pardee
Thank you for the help. I hope to work on my hills if the snow ever stops coming down.
