WaCanId Ride
September 11, 2023 - September 16, 2023
Register in advanceThe WaCanId is an annual Rotarian supported, bicycle tour taking cyclists on paved roads encircling the Selkirk Mountains of Washington, Canada and Idaho â hence the name WaCanId.
Our 6-day event covers 395 miles/635 kilometers and showcases the International Selkirk Loopâs spectacular scenery â majestic mountains, beautiful lakes, rivers and the worldâs longest free scenic ferry. We also have the best SAG support of any ride â so if you need a lift, no problem. There will be a few climbs to challenge you, but it will be the scenery that will take your breath away:
- Designated by the U.S. Department of Transportation as one of the âTop 10 Scenic Destinations in the Northern Rockiesâ
- Named âBest of the Roadsâ by Rand McNally Road Atlas
- Named the âWestâs Best Scenic Driveâ by Sunset Magazine
The weather is usually mild in September with warm days and chilly nights. The traffic is low at this time of year and we will have you on secondary highways whenever possible so you may not see a car for many miles. The communities you pass through and people you will meet are friendly. We will haul your luggage, provide snacks and drinks to keep you fuelled, help with minor repairs and keep you headed in the right direction. You just ride and take in the scenery.
So what are you waiting forâŚ. It is a terrific ride and we look forward to having you join us for the 2023 WaCanId!
