NW Cascade Loop Ride.

The Ride is scheduled for Saturday 18th September. I guess as I'm the organizer I had better start planning it hadn't I :) Given that Hwy 2 is a dogs dinner in the afternoon most likely we will meet in Monroe for Breakfast ride over Hwy2 to Leavenworth, north to Winthrop then Darrington and back down to Monroe. If anyone has any ideas or suggestions feel free to send them my way. Its about a 400 mile round trip. No Freeways, beautiful scenery and roads. Most likely meet for breakfast at 7:30, and clutch out at 8:15 so we have a clear run over the pass.
 
Sep 18th? Now I'm bummed. I will be in San Diego on that day, where my son will have graduated from U.S. Marine Corp Basic Training the day before. At least I'll be able to see the California coast.
 
Good call on Highway 2. Straight into the sun and stop and go traffic for 20 miles getting into Monroe. Sat evening wont be as bad as a Sunday, but still brutal. The 11th would work better for me. I am supposed to be in Portland the 18th.
 
Ok I updated the ride info on the Calender, sorry that some can't make it. Lets meet at the Hitching Post in Monroe for Breakfast. This is an official COG Event so I move the thread to the correct category Cheers Colin
 
Darn. Thanks anyway. Starting in Monroe doesn't work for me. Picky me LOL. Don't like the traffic on 2 (or 90). I do the route coming back over US 12. Have a GREAT ride.
