Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Doing the sunnyside century on the 11th. https://sunnysidesports.com/events.htm

can anyone estimate the elevation gain for that ride? I don't want to be unprepared..but after emailing the shop...and waiting four days now... I haven't heard anything...so I am relying on my faithful cyclist friends here to help me out


Thanks
