Our family will do the Tour de Stooges instead - less milage and flatter.

Yeah, I think Erick and I will do the same.  Erick wisely suggested that maybe we should be in better shape and have ridden a few more hilly miles before diving into such a long and hilly route.  I--resentfully--agreed. Sometimes graduate school and 'getting miles in' don't mix.

I had the same idea.  Plus with the chance of rain/T-storms, I did not want to shell out the $85 since I don't trust my descending skills enough to ride the route if it rains.
