* There  some rough sections of dirt roads but all are passable on road or cross bikes.  28-cc tires are reccomended.

* There will be no traffic control or individuals directing bikers at any intersections.  The course will not be marked but a cue sheet will be provided and is available to download from Ride with GPS and STRAVA.
