Looks interesting. Long drive to get there though, 8-10 hours?

yes indeed. about 8 1/2 to get to my parents house and another 45 minutes to NYC

Isn't this the ride where you can wait about 30-45 min for the riders in front to move so you can start moving? There are only 30000 riders to dodge. I read it tended to be a bit slow pace overall. Let us know how you do. I'm sure there will be a story to tell.

very true, but they line up according to pace, 16mph+ at the front all the way down to 9mph at the back but im sure it will take a while even for those near the front. riding in NYC with no traffic should be an experience.
