HA! Was just talking about this with my sister a few days ago. We did it the first year it happened. Didn't know it was still a thing. I'll have to check it out.

EDIT: ok, I did. A little sketchy on the details. What time does it start? Any info on rest stops? Am I missing a page?

I've ridden out that way in the past (my aunt has a house out there).

roads are scenic, but some of them are narrow and locals haul ass through them. Not sure they'd really be expecting cyclists.

This pretty much describes all the roads out that way. To give them credit, the locals do seem to be aware that they live in a good cycling area & try to co-exist. Never had an issue in that area, touch wood.
