They finally have maps and elevation guides posted:

Now the tough question...do I want to do the 100 or the 62.5. The courses look exactly the same, except that the 100 has that loop around Mt Joy. Why do I have a feeling that I'll develop other names for it other than Mt Joy if I take that option...

I rode el Tour de Mesa a few weeks ago:

and last year I rode in el Tour de Tucson:

My long rides lately have been about 70-80 miles, with about 2000-2500 feet of climbing. But here in AZ, it is either one extreme or the other...flat as a pancake or crazy 3-6 mile climbs. None of this rolling stuff. Any advice which you'd take?
