If it didn't cost I'd be there in a heartbeat. That looks like a 50 miler that I could actually do. Dang.

This looks like a fun ride!
If I'd known about this (and if I felt better!), I'd have gone down there tonight for that ride! It really looks like good ride.

I'm going on an ACTC club ride tomorrow, which is being led by a couple of friends of mine. It starts at the VTA Park & Ride lot at the corner of Coleman & Winfield in San Jose (couple of blocks off Almaden Expressway, near Almaden Lake Park).
There are a couple of hills, Bailey Road & Buffalo Hill.
The ride leaders (both women) are quite good, and they mean it when they say no-one is left behind.
The ride is classified L to LM
The L ("Leisurely") classification being 10-12 mph. Stops as needed.
and LM ("Easy moderate"): 12-14 mph. Regroups approx. every 30 min.
Roll-out time is 9 am so you should be there by 8:45. Non-members are welcome. C'mon down!
Here's the ride description:
-----

Hey Jo! I was thinking about trying this one tomorrow. I'm just afraid I won't be able to make it up Bailey. I suppose I can always walk it if I have to. Do you know where they're planning on doing lunch?

There's a strip mall down in Morgan Hill where we've stopped in the past. There's a deli (ack, I'm blanking - Eddys?) and a Togo's, among other choices.
Just take Bailey slow & steady. You'll likely have company - we're not a "racy" group
