First of all, congrats on your new bike. Aaaand, this is a great race I believe. I would encourage you to go for it, especially the hotel part, etc.
There will be a similar race in fall in Bulgaria but the only thing that stops me is that at the end of every stage, my TENT expects me. I would not rest sleeping on the ground and not having a nice shower after each day.
