I started from the official start location around 8:15ish.... It was interesting as it was windy but I was feeling really good. I would either catch a group or just take off and form a group but my friend who I convinced to ride with me couldn't keepup so I'd have to wait for him at the rest stops or places in between rest stops. I thinkI could have trimmed an hour off my time easy today.

And yes the parkwas great!

I wanted to ride yesterday but they held my bike hostage. I talked to a couple guys that rode on Saturday and they said it was very wet but ridable.
