Interesting format, that may produce great dot watching, with the relay teams of four. And they are restricting the numbers as well.

Relay? Teams? I assume that will also mean a level of support? Doesn't seem very bikepacky?

They go solo in four stretches, city to city, so not a relay like RAAM. More of a shorter bike packing experience.
