At four hours for a 10-12 mile ride, I would imagine the pace will be pretty casual. And if there are going to be breaks for info from Mr. Reutter, then that's the perfect time to catch your breath from any hills.
If anyone else is interested, I also thought of maybe doing this as a shuttle-- Drop off one car near Ikaros, drive bikes and riders up to BBC, do the ride, then drive bikes and riders back up to BBC to the car left there. Less mileage that way, but easier if anyone's concerned about the pace, etc. Though if the weather's good, it'll be more fun to ride back.

"How about if we all just try to follow these very simple rules of the road? Drive like the person ahead on the bike is your son/daughter. Ride like the cars are ambulances carrying your loved ones to the emergency room. This should cover everything, unless you are a complete sociopath."

Well, if I can get my butt out of bed early enough to get up there, then I'll just have to take photos to show y'all what you missed
