No, not as hilly as the northern part of the old course. The land itself is pretty much completely flat. I think some just underestimate the number of overpasses. I drive it often and started paying attention when I signed up for the race. There are more than I thought. But the good thing is it seems to be very consistent, and ever "hill" has a pretty tame grade with an equal downhill and flat behind it.
I've never ridden the course, but have ridden on the Grand Parkway which is similar. Only thing is that wind can be an issue. The day I rode the Grand Parkway it was cold with strong swirling winds. It was demoralizing.
