Well as some of you might have guessed already the BCBATR will start from Harrison Hot Springs and the host Hotel is the beautiful Harrison Hot Spring Resort and Spa. The Resort is very popular and sells out most every weekend. I was able to get a group rate of $99 per night. When booking just tell them your with the BCBATR and you will get that rate. You have to book your room at least 45 days ahead or it won't be held. I know it might be a little over most of our budgets but it's well worth it for such a nice Hotel.

Camping info coming soon. I have the whole ride mapped out now but need to get through a few areas that are covered with snow still. Until I can ride the entire route I don't want to post it just yet. I'm working on Hotels and camping for the second and third night. Hopefully have the second night done this weekend, leaving after work on Friday to go scouting. I have to say I'm enjoying the riding up in the mtns except for the snow. Sorry for the delay but the snow really slowed things down and I only have weekends to go scouting. The ride areas are really fun to ride though and some great scenery along the way.

I rode three different sections on the weekend and this one that I didn't finish last weekend because of my clutch cable. Good thing is lots of snow melting.

Same lake.

Question: I'll be riding up from Seattle on Thursday the 6th so I'll book a room for Thursday but are we doing a day ride Friday and staying at Harrison Hotel on Friday night as well?

Or are we somewhere else on Friday night?

Hi Donn,

Thursday night in Harrison then ride all day Friday to a new location for night. Just waiting to hear back from some Motels for a group rate for Friday night.

Cheers

Another section I rode on the weekend.

He was out in that field.

Damn, I have to start going on rides with Lex again, just to make sure he doesn't get out of control.

I can see the headlines now...
