About this event
This year’s Half-Fast Lap is another romp through the mountains, taking in
both the Cascades and the Olympics as well as a ferry ride!
We’ll start our 1,000 miles of fun roads
in Bothell, Washington on Saturday, Sep 14. Gathering for coffee and treats at the Caffé Ladro (18610 Bothell Way NE, WA 98011), we’ll head out from there simply following Hwy 2 eastbound up past Goldbar, Startup, Index, and through Stevens Pass. The far side of the pass is still Hwy 2 except for
the turn off for Plain and the Chumstick Hwy.
In Wenatchee, we take a side trip south towards Malaga before heading back north to Chelan for lunch. Orchards, valleys, dry fields, bare mountains,
rivers and deep Lake Chelan are all part of the sights, before crossing the
mighty Columbia River, heading up a twisty canyon and making our way to
Grand Coulee Dam. Next it’s the fun and fast run up through Nespelem,
Omak, Loup Loup Pass, ending the day in Twisp at the Idle-A-While Inn,
a fun roadside, old school motel. Cabins or rooms are available for Saturday, Sept 14. Call 509-997-3222 and ask for the Alfa Romeo Club block of rooms to get a 10% discount.
Sunday morning we go west through the North Cascades to Bellingham, and drop down Chuckanut Drive. We'll cross Deception Pass onto Whidbey island and take the Keystone Ferry from Coupville to Port Townsend. We'll stay at the historic Monarch Hotel. Call 360-385-5467 and ask for the Alfa Romeo block of rooms for a 10% discount.
Monday we'll visit Hurricane Ridge, stop for lunch, then travel along Hood Canal to return to the Seattle area.
Reserve rooms by August 14. Don't miss out on this great tour!
