I agree and I was one of them. As a person who used the forums "history" to judge how hard the course was/is, I think that it should be made clear that there ARE at least two nasty hills on the course. Many history posts claim the course is "easy" - its not. At least not to the newbie/heavy cyclist. Many, many people pushed up those hills and to disregard them as "minimal" is doing a dis-service to the hobby and the attraction of long-term riders who may feel less that worthy for pushing on the hills.

I had a few people comment to me that they "had to push on some of the hills", my reply, "be proud, you are out here in the freezing cold and traveling around an island under your own steam - an awesome accomplishment"...
