This movie is a nice representation of the event, especially the festival side of it and the 30 mile route. I would note that the vibe on the 100 mile route was a little bit different. There were "real riders" there doing a very hard ride on historic bikes, with 9500 feet of climbing on grades of up to 25%. No disrespect to the riders who did shorter distances but it was not just a costume party for many of us. It was "heroic" as it should have been, even for the 55 mile riders whose route shared that of the 100 milers for several sections. It is a great event at whatever level you can participate!!!
