+1! (route map: http://www.dairylanddare.com/files/Map2008.pdf)

You can definitely leave the 100K vs 200K "moment of truth" until late in the game. Even if you go for the 200K and find that you just don't have enough in the tank you can cut off the section to Clyde and follow the 100K route back to the finish via Pleasant Ridge, which would be about 133K. The actual 133K route has you adding 33K at the very end. So many choices!

I'll try to be there early enough for the 6am rollout to say "hello", but no guarantees. You've probably noticed that I tend to show up a bit late to these events. More than likely I'll get started around 6:30. Have a good ride, everyone!
