I just noticed this is the same day as the Daytona 500
Yes...I like taxicab neck racing and this race is like the superbowl for us beer drinking rednecks. Tough decision here.

It took me 2:14 with breaks so maybe close to three hours for a large group. Hard to tell though with all the singlespeeders and being a social ride, etc.
