Actually i did 27.2 kms/hr average because the course is little bit
longer
than 50 miles.My odometer reads distance : 81.96 kms
TM : 3h 005, average 27.2 Kms/h.Beside, after the official start in
Rosarito, I walk with my bike for 5 minutes because it was so crowdy
and when I started to pedal still my speed was too low trying to pass
the other bikers in
front of me.I gave the best of me during the uphill at El Tigre and I
climb it
with a very hard gear; infact I did pass almost everybody there and
most
were road biker...and i am 49 years old.

If not i suggest to do someday because it is a very beautiful course
and
about 7000-8000 people usually partecipate twice at year (
April-September)
Thank u for answering to me and good luck
