The website describes this course as having “rolling hills,” which doesn’t sound too bad.
There's 3 reasonably challenging climbs, none really long, plus a fairly short but steep climb to the Olea Olive farm stop. But it makes the Olive oil Fries oh so worth it!

Which of your bikes will you be riding, and how are you flying in/transporting your bike/staying?

Check into our thread about Eroica here, I've added you into the BF participant list on post #84:
