11.0 mile out-and-back course; 5.5 miles up Swanton Rd. (includes a 1.2 mile climb), turn around at Last Chance Road (top of the hill, first sight of the ocean), and 5.5 miles back. Narrow country road with several sharp turns, pavement poor to good.

While licenses are not required, riders will be required to sign a waiver at registration. Event is limited to first 30 riders.
Prizes/Awards:
None (hey, check out that entry fee), but you will get to brazenly swagger at the post-ride swillfest (Whale City Bakery at corner of Hwy 1 & Ocean St. in Davenport)
