I probably wouldn't eat anything anyway. Just need a bottle somewhere around halfway...
I'm interested, but not decided for sure. I'll drop them a note. Be good for a change of scenery.
How does this rate in difficulty compared to the Mulholland Century route, or my modified route?
Vance's rating seems about right. The map of your "modified Mulholland" is a little more modified than your text stated. Most notably, you took Agoura Road on one of the lengths where the Mullholland Century does both directions on Mullholland. Coupled with that fact you didn't do Deer Creek, I am not sure how you got to 12,000 feet. But, more to the point, you have nothing to worry about on TdF, I think you will finish in the same amount of time as your "modified Mullholland", maybe a little sooner. My guess is it is about the same amount of climbing.
