I've ridden that far on my fixie many times following a favorite greenway route, but I have no idea what the terrain is going to look like for this ride. I'm guessing I'll be the only fixed gear bike there. I'm supposed to be riding with a friend who has a hardtail mountain bike set up as a commuter so at least we can be slow together.
Good luck! That sounds like a great time. I wish there were bike races/rides nearer to my location. Unfortunately Dayton (along with most of Ohio) aren't that into the bike thing, and I can't really afford to travel for rides. Tell us how it goes.
