Don't let the elevation chart scare you. Keep in mind that spread out over 88
miles, it's not bad. A lot of 5 and 6% but nothing worse.
I'll even buy you a piece of your favorite pie at Newcomb's Ranch (or whatever kind
of pie they have there . . . ).
Pie is great fuel for the last bit from Newcomb's to the tunnels (although I had 2 Luna
bars and an Expresso Hammer Gel myself).
But really, the vast majority of 50+ forumites could complete this ride.
