Shiggy put together
Basin's Edge 200K, a
fun and scenic route in central Washington for Desert River Randonneurs that we're running again this year as a SIR Brevet.
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.
There will be some long stretches without services. Please ensure you are carrying enough food and drink for your needs. Away from towns cell phone coverage may be unavailable.
Registration/Sign-in: 06:30 at the start.
Start: 07:00 at Safeway, 510 Grant Rd, East Wenatchee, WA 98802
Finish: Safeway, 510 Grant Rd, East Wenatchee, WA 98802
Lighting: Working front and rear lights are required.
Reflective Gear: Vest and ankle bands are required per RUSA rules.
Fenders: Not required but if the weather is inclement you will make more friends if your bicycle has fenders with effective fenders and buddy flaps.
Tools: This is a self-supported ride. You are expected to be able to be self-sufficient in the event you get a flat tire or need to perform a repair on your bicycle.
