I ride up there a lot with my sister. Not that I know much about the area, I just follow her and her husband. I'll ask them and post any reply. We do ride and follow the pro race though - that's a lot of fun and the area they ride is great for riding, down around the art museum. Traffic is closed off on part of it during the weekend.

I'll see what they say in case no one on the board is actually a local.
