September Tour of Washington
It is time to begin thinking of my fall tour which this year is going to be a tour of Washington State beginning and ending in Olympia. This way I do not have any travel to and from days. However, it is best to remember the end date can change due to any number of factors including rain, mechanical failures, injuries, etc. I along with my fellow cyclists have four long days which may need to be shortened, but we will decide then.
Below is the tentative trip with proposed daily ending points:
