Bay Area riders - ever do the House of Pain ride?

It’s a regular from Walnut Creek to Livermore and back and pretty popular with some triathletes. I did it Saturday and got my ass handed to me. I have never been on a ride this fast before. Anyone else out there do this one?

I know some folks who have done the first few miles, then were spit out the back. I’ve seen them go by me. :wink:
