Columbia Gorge Tour

Columbia Gorge tour

Sept 21-22  $35 per car

Join us on a  spectacular driving tour and experience the joy of roads less traveled with a group of bimmerphiles that enjoy the experience of sharing a day of driving their magnificent BMWs. Trade stories, enjoy the tour, have fun and make new friends. What could be better on the first day of Fall.

BMW Northwest will again host us at their dealership in Fife and provide coffee and donuts so we are fueled up to start the day.  The route will take us west across the Tacoma Narrows Bridge, then we will stop after about 1.5 hours of driving for a break to refill our coffee cups and vehicles as necessary.  From that point we will be going Southeast to work our way to Longview. The next portion of the tour may make some wonder why we are on I-5 - it is because I know that driving through urban areas in Southewest WA is frustrating and no fun what so ever. 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. Well, you waited so long to sign up, you missed the hotel block we held for the you, but you can still check for room availability. We will be staying at the Best Western Plus Columbia River Inn, 735 WaNaPa St. Cascade Locks, Oregon. Room reservation cut off for the club rate was August 30)  After I complete the pre-drive, I will see if there is a restaurant that will host our groups and if not, I will generate a list of restaurants you can enjoy for dinner.
