Will this be doable?

Tacoma Wheelman’s Bicycle Club
DAFFODIL CLASSIC
BUCLEY LOOP
40 Miles Version: 3/22/2008

The link is to the elevation profile for the Daffodil ride, this one is the 40 mile loop. I would like it if someone could interpret what the profile is acctually saying. Like what is the difficulty level? Is this a beginners ride or should one be considered an intermediate or advanced type rider?

I want to do this ride but am not sure if with all the hills it would be a good first ride ever sort of ride? So I am asking you all to share some of your wisdom with me? Thanks all for the great info and knowledge I know you all will share.

This is an easy ride, with just a few short steep bits. It's going to be April 19th--I could ride with you if you'd like. Perhaps you could be coaxed to do the 60 miles? That's the one I usually do.

60 miles I don't know about that one, I am also thinking that the 1-30 mile trail may be an option... heheheh... remember I am just getting back into shape here.... and I tell you the hills are still kicking my butt... but the goal is to do the ride in 3 months so if I am up to the 60 I will do it. I would love to ride with you so I will make it my goal.

I'll let you ride it if you like, and I will check out the Nishiki's ride characteristics, how's that?
