I rode it last year and it was fun. Additional info from my last year's experience which may not apply:

I rode it last year and it was fun. Additional info from my last year's experience which may not apply:
- no route slip; lucky I found a group that knows the way in the area since I got dropped outbound
- route last year was:
-out: UC Cyclery -> southbound bike path at I-5/Gilman Dr ramp -> Old Town -> eastbound parallel to I-8 -> up one moderate duration hill -> Salvation Army building
-back: Salvation Army building -> westbound on University Ave -> northbound parallel to I-5 -> bike path up to Gilman -> UC Cyclery - the main pack somehow started to cruising at 18-20mph after a little while on the outbound leg; on the return trip, it was slower so this year they may enforce their 15mph limit
