Blackberry bRamble 8/4/19?
Anyone here doing this ride? I decided to register for it, even though I am just getting back into cycling. I'm registered for the metric century ride. I figure I have enough time to train for it.

I've done the ride a couple of times. Full century. It is a fun ride with great scenery. 
I think the Metric Century cuts off both some climbing, as well as distance. A couple of the rest stops are shared between rides.
For the more ambitious riders, there is the Tour de Lane that is a 3 day event sharing one day with the Blackberry.
They haven't updated their website for some time, so it isn't clear what is happening.
I hadn't thought about doing the Blackberry again this year.
