Hi All,
I did this ride yesterday and wanted to post a ride report just in case you consider doing this route.
Between kilometre 54 and 67 (before you reach the 411) the roads are in very bad condition and I would NOT recommend anyone ride this unless you have a cyclocross or MTB. There are sections of the descent that are washed out, meaning I had to get off and carry my bike across, large sharp rocks scattered thought the descent, very slick road surfaces the entire ride down. The assent was also pepered with sharp but smaller rocks, slippery roads so that you cannot stand because you will just spin out, and a very scary unlit tunnel at the beginning
Anyways, I just wanted to give fair warning to all TCC riders.
