This is a fundraiser race, so the energy on the course is more about the cause than the clock. The name ties to a local tradition involving grilled cheese, which gives the whole morning a character you do not find at most road races.
Packet pickup and registration both happen on race morning before the start, which keeps things simple if you are coming from out of town or just decided to join at the last minute.
