I'm still on the fence on this one. It's a 3 hour drive for me so I'm not liking getting up at 3am and driving 3 hrs to ride a bike when I can sleep in and do it at home for free. On the other hand, the local kayak concession is sponsoring a Pedal/Paddle for Cancer that day, and that should be a lot of fun too. I can donate the $ I didn't spend on gas. There's a 50/50 chance I'll be there and of course I'll be sporting my new favorite jersey as well.

PS Now if only my sister would invite me to stay at her house - that would put me 2 hours closer and I could sleep till 5:30. LOL Such a deal.
Yeah, I'll be there. We should organize a Gettysburg Ride, though.

I'm registered for the 46-mile hill crank. Not sure I'll make it up there, though, as the weekend looks to be busy.
I'm still rehabbing the knees and I'm not ready for any outside riding, especially hills! Yesterday I was able to bike on the trainer stand pain free, so I'm definitely improving. I should be ready for the DC Monument Tour II ride.
I'd rather be swimming...biking...running...and eating cheesecake...

Um, how hilly is hilly?
The 25 mile ride seems like a waste of gas, since I'd ride a lot longer than that here. But if there are monster hills on the 47 and 62, that won't be much fun either. I get uncomfortable over 13% or so. I can do steeper, but it's not that fun.
I don't know about the max grade % but I doubt there are any that steep. There's more to the event than just the ride and besides that it's nice to have a change of scenery once in a while.
C'mon!
