I rode the PWP this year for the first time...it was amazing. (Actually, truth be told, everything I ride this year is the first time because I'm just getting in to this.) If you like hills, this is the ride for you. No sooner did one finish and my heart rate would be back down in the normal range than I'd look up and there'd be another one. Perhaps someone with more experience can say whether this would be considered a 'hilly' ride. I know it was more hills than I've experienced at HHH, Waco, Georgetown, Waxahachie, Burnet.
But it was a well-supported event. A great rock band greeted the riders at the finish as well as free fajitas, beer and massages. LOTS of goodies in the goody bag. And for those lucky riders who stopped at the "Tour de Pine" rest stop - delicious BLT sandwiches on croissants!
There seemed to be a pretty large contingent from Houston...you North Texas guys should really try this one.
I'd love to hear other riders' reports.
