I did this ride in 2004 and can remember that the scenery is magnificant. The loop did takee me a little longer than I expected due to the technical sections and the occassional stop to take pictures. This year I am going with a friend and will update this post when we get back and with some pictures possably. [click to enlarge]. [photos]
