If the race starts on the Peninsula, hopefully stage one will too, we have some great riding in the coastal mountains that would make for some interesting racing. HWY 84 and HWY 35 might even be a suitable area for a near mountain top finish with a little downhill...say coming from Tunitas, Kings or OLH.
