Brian,

Re the down hill on Otisco Road to the T at Otisco Valley:   Were you saying to turn right on Oak Hill traveling NW, then turn left on Otisco Valley Road and ride south along the Otisco Lake and eventually intersect the original route?   That sounds good to me if that is what you meant.  I don't like steeps with stops at the bottom.

Re Moonhill, I would like to do it, but if most are not up for it, that is fine too.  I would rather have a good turnout!   Moon Hill is one of these famous hills..., but I can always ride it on my own sometime.  No biggy.  As you have beaten me up just about every hill this season, you won't be last!!

I see that Moonhill is on  the route...  but, I completely forgot how much more climbing there is on Willowdale....   This climb would probably qualify as a Category 2 climb in the TdF.  Total climb is 2.2 miles at 8.6%, but the middle of it is 1.5 miles at 9.7%

I don't know why this route goes down Otisco Road to Otisco Valley.  Its 12% at the bottom and tees into Otisco Valley. Seems dangerous.  It would make more sense to take Oak Hill down even though it adds 5 miles.  The ride is only 39 miles long.
