I think I copied their links above.

It in my neighborhood so I should be there on my blue trike. I think its the only trike I've seen with an American flag tall enough that it uses a guy wire to help keep it from falling over. Hope for 40miles and to eek out 12mph pace.

I was looking forward to that until I saw 2 mandatory 2-lane U turns on the 100k. I wrote the event contact on the web page and asked about the plan for that -especially with tandems or long recumbent .. No reply

Detours to avoid road construction are hard to avoid around here these days, but when they are calling their 100k route a race and giving prizes for winners, it seems like narrow road U-turns would be something you'd plan your detours to avoid too.
