The route was in great shape. Easy travel to the ridge, snow-less ridge scrambling throughout the ridge, and then a perfect glissade back down. Left crampons in the car and they weren't needed.
Using Mt bikes, it took about 1.5 hrs to the bike drop, and a total of ~5:30 to the summit. Back at the cars at 8:30 car to car. Really awesome and efficient crew. stayed close to ridge top for much of it. Brought some ropes and harness, but they were only used for style points.
