Zone6 Grand Tour

Recommended Posts

I was just reading about the Zone6 Grand tour on the Boxster Register site. Are their plans for Wild Rose to participate? Is there a planning committee?

I talked to Dina about what was happening. We have a tentative route through Wild Rose, from Fernie BC, up the Cowboy Trail to K-Country, through Banff National Park, and north on the Icefields highway towards Jasper. Details and interregion handoffs are still being worked. About 800km (500 miles) of spectacular scenery. Minimal freeway and no cities, but never too far from either.

 

It appears to be set up as a single big tour, but could easily be drop in/out, or even a Z6 self guided tour book.

 

Tentative dates are mid to late July. Not sure of the year. ;)

The organizers hope to publish the details of the Grand Tour by the end of May.

More info to tempt you with.

 

The tour passes through each of the 16 regions in Zone6. The total tour plan is for 15 days covering 7500+Km, tentatively, 07/25 to 08/08, with our part July 29-30. The Wild Rose segment is from Fernie to Icefield Parkway, with an overnight in Canmore. Stay tuned for more Wild Rose activities co-ordinated with the tour.

 

Expect an invite from the Zone6 rep Tim Hagner in the next little while.

The Zone6 Grand Tour has begun! Day 1 included parade laps of Pacific Raceway, a tour off the beaten track east of Seattle, the Lemay Car Museum, and the Olympic Peninsula of Washington. There were about 24 participants, and they all seemed to be happy campers. Overnighting in Port Angeles WA, and off the Vancouver Island and VIR tomorrow. 9 cars planning to do the whole loop, WOW!!

 

More updates as time permits!
