Volunteer here: https://bit.ly/ronde24volunteer - I could use extra help volunteering this year as I have a broken calcaneus and tibia and am mobility impaired.

Last year, we shortened the route by deleting some Skyline Slog in favor of more Cemetery Splendor. However, we received some complaints that it made the route too short. "De Ronde is supposed to be 50 miles!" they said. Well, we exist to serve our Lion Chasers. And fortuitously, we observed a lost opportunity to inject another lap into the Hillside neighborhood before the final push to Pittock Mansion whilst preventing any route self-touchy. What a fine marriage of circumstance. You complain, we deliver. De Ronde is again 50 miles long.
