BMW Northwest will again host us at their dealership in Fife and provide coffee and donuts, so we are fueled up to start the tour.

The route will take us West across the Tacoma Narrows then we will stop after about 1.5 hours driving for a break to refill our coffee cups and vehicles if necessary.

From that point we will be going in a Southeasterly direction to work our way to Longview. The next portion of the tour may make some wonder why are we on I-5! Because I have led these tours, I know that driving through urban areas in Southwest WA is frustrating and no fun whatsoever. Thus, we will be on I-5 and I-205 for a quick shot to get back on what is a normal tour road. Trust me, you don't want to go the other route.

Tour registration is on Motorsportreg.com. The cost is $35 per vehicle. The event is limited to 15 registrations. Register at http://msreg.com/Columbia24

The Best Western Plus Columbia Inn in Cascade Lock, OR is nice and comfortable with room choices that include river views and balconies, and they have pet friendly rooms. Our special reservation rate expires August 30,2024 - after that, you will be responsible for making your reservation directly or at nearby hotels.

After I complete the pre- drive, I will see if there is a restaurant that will host our group and if not a list of restaurants you can enjoy for dinner will be provided.
