In addition to his "Two Dam Far" route from June 2011, Bob Koen had 2 other suggested routes. Future Routes.

1. White Rock to Southern Oregon through Olympia, Astoria, and then all the way down the Oregon Coast. The Oregon coast is absolutely spectacular for cycling. Amtrak runs a bus service that connects to the train for getting home. This would be a moderate route because the first day and a half could be made to be relatively flat, allowing riders to accumulate time in the bank. The Oregon coast section is pretty rolling, with the emphasis on pretty. And I rode much of this on the Crater Lake 1000, so a partial preride has been done. Keith Patterson likes this route and suggested modifications: "Vancouver-Bellingham-Annacortes-Ferry to Port Townsend-Port Angeles-Astoria-Tillamock-etc until we’ve hit 1000 somewhere down the coast."

2. A circle tour of the Olympic Peninsula from White Rock. Also a difficult route as there is quite a bit of climbing involved. There are also 2 ferry rides to contend with.
