Spring 200km ACP Brevet, 4/6/2019 - Wenatchee

Last year, Shiggy put together a fun and scenic route in central Washington that we're running again this year.

Follow the Columbia River to the edge of the basin.
Mostly on quiet back roads we will travel past the Quincy Lakes on gravel, drop down Frenchman Coulee to the river, and climb back out. Head into the sagebrush steppe north of Quincy for a bit more gravel and return to East Wenatchee.

About 5300' of climbing. 14 miles of gravel (two sections). 32mm or wider tires recommended

Spring 300km ACP Brevet, 3/23/19

*** Pre-Drive Update ***
Some snow remaining up in the hills and still a bit chilly on the summits but all roads and shoulders clear and dry.
***

By popular demand, our 300 this spring is, once again, the quiet and scenic Hermiston-Pendleton-Hermiston-Pendleton-Hermiston route. The original description for this route is still valid. Please follow that link, read and digest if you're planning on joining us for this ride.

This early in the season there's a small risk that there will be snow or ice on the high parts of this route. We'll be watching the weather and might cancel or reschedule if it's looking very sketchy. Whatever the weather, it'll be a few degrees colder up in the hills than at the start/finish, so you'll be wise to bring an extra layer or two.
