I think I only rode it once or twice in a group. But I believe that was supposed to be a 'spirited' riding section of a mile or so where people could empty the tanks.
As you say it also avoids a couple of narrow, twisty, dark, potholed lanes. Aren't all those descents a bit 'scary' in the dark?
During the day I've normally taken the route you describe.
