About this event
Itinerary:
The current plan is to ride Lopez Island on Day 1, Orcas Island on Day 2, and San Juan Island on Day 3. The following is the proposed itinerary:
Day 1 Lopez Island:
Depart Anacortes 9:35am
Arrive Lopez Island 10:20am
Depart Lopez Island 4:25pm or 6:40pm
Arrive Anacortes 5:10pm or 7:25pm
Day 2 Orcas Island:
Depart Anacortes 7:25am
Arrive Orcas Island 8:20am
Depart Orcas Island 5:15pm
Arrive Anacortes 6:25pm
Day 3 San Juan Island:
Depart Anacortes 9:00am
Arrive Friday Harbor 10:10am
Depart Friday Harbor 6:35pm
Arrive Anacortes 7:45pm
NOTE: Riding Shaw Island on Day 2 is also an option for those not wanting to ride Orcas Island and climbing Mt Constitution.
There are some possible variations that can be made to the schedule, but these times are the most convenient and logical. It is the assumption that riders would all leave Anacortes each day together, like a regular club ride, and probably return together as well, though the return trip time could be left to the individual rider. See link below to the WSDOT Ferry Schedule.
Walk-on ferry tickets for seniors are $8.25 plus a $4.00 bicycle surcharge. Under 65, the cost is $16.50 plus $4.00 for your bike. See link below to the WSDOT Ferry Info and Cost.
Accommodations:
Most riders have already secured campsites at Washington Park in Anacortes. Some have excess capacity at their sites and can accommodate those who need a place to camp. Washington Park is minutes away from the ferry terminal and is a beautiful location and has showers.
