Hi all

I've lurked here for awhile, and decided that I need to knock it off, and just jump in and start posting!

I'm curious about the Tierra Bella in Gilroy (April 19th). I've never ridden it, and would love to get your opinions about it. I'm thinking about the metric, but I thinkin I'm going to have to kick up the training just a tad. I did the Wine Country Metric last year, which was a great experience for my first organized/supported ride - it wasn't too hard, was absolutely beautiful, and had great food. So, I guess I'm wondering how this might compare. It appears that there's quite a bit more climbing involved, and fewer rest stops, but I'd love to hear from people who have actually done it.

Thanks!
Sarah
