It's mostly on streets, and not very hilly.
it ends in a nice park where you can see the flaming geyser and/or put your feet in the water.

It sounds wonderful! I can't wait to read the description either, I've never been to that area.
Starfish, it would be great if you could make it. It will be a perfect recovery ride after the big one

well, ahem.. the geyser looks more like a candle. in the sunlight it's hard to see if it's lit. It's a methane exhaust pipe .. there used to be mines in the area.

I think it's about 40-50 miles. with lunch at the park. I'll get back with exact mileage soon. DH will get right on it.
