Overnights & Tours 2020
BIKES Club tours and weekends are put together with the idea that riding and sight-seeing are more enjoyable for a group.
Bicycle rides are typically one day activities. Rides of more than 1 day are considered a tour.
-
A tour shall not exceed 5 days of bicycling per insurance limitations.
-
Tours over 5 days of bicycling require approval by our insurance provider.
All BIKES Club rides and tours are limited to the USA only per our insurance provider.
The following list of tours is tentative - organizers need to hear from you that you are interested, or a tour may be canceled. Contact the ride leader by the RSVP date to express your interest and confirm details.
Tour Tips
- Tours are for members of B.I.K.E.S. Club of Snohomish County - we welcome you to join the club! Then, make sure your membership stays up to date!
- Riders cover their own costs for food and lodging, and share transportation costs if applicable (for SAG or carpools). Make your own reservations.
- Have your bike in good repair, and be ready to ride some hills and the distances involved.
- Everyone should have the equipment and know how to deal with a flat tire.
- If you want to diverge from the intended routes, plan to communicate with the ride leader and be able to find your own way.
