Ride The Harbor 2025 - Full Route · Ride with GPS

(Please Note: Route subject to change.)

We recommend riding with a team! Riding with a group can help motivate you to get out, log more miles, build friendships and can also help you be seen by drivers. Learning from the more experienced riders can help you build confidence, learn about proper gear, and can push you to become a stronger rider overall, not to mention you can save between 20-40% of your energy drafting in a group!

TEAM DISCOUNT:

Teams consist of FIVE or more riders. If you would like to start a team, please reach out to the Event Coordinator before registering to receive a promo code for 10% off registration costs for you and your team members. Contact Jenelle at 360-495-5734 or foundation@sp-mc.org for a team promo code.

Team Captains will receive a FREE Captain Jersey!

BEFORE YOU BEGIN:

Before creating a new team, check to see if your team exists already, or if you already know the team captain, ask them to send you the code for joining their team. (Not all teams require a code to join.)

If you create a new team, you automatically become the default Team Captain. The team captain has the choice of allowing anyone from the public to join the team or to add an access code to limit who may join.

Will there be transportation available for riders?

Shuttles will be available back from Montesano & Westport on a limited basis for riders. Shuttle tickets are $10 and each cyclist will need their own ticket. Ticket fees go towards vehicle rental and fuel expenses. Purchase tickets in the PRODUCTS section of registration.

Shuttles will be departing approximately every 60-90 minutes on a first come, first serve basis.

Depending on your chosen route/distance, there will be different activities available to you. Once you have completed your ride and stopped in at your finish line’s check-out, please plan on hanging around the venue to pick up some refreshments.

Our Westport Finish Line Pavilion will be located at the Viewing Tower Park near the jetty. You will find a yummy BBQ lunch, Beer Garden and a selection of beverages and electrolyte drinks in addition to water. We invite Elma & Montesano Finishers to stop by the Westport Pavilion after they have checked-out at their finish line, listen to some music and visit our vendor booths.

Families are also welcome! As a rider, a BBQ lunch comes with your registration. If your family would like to attend, you can pre-purchase meal tickets in the products section of this website or meal tickets will be available for purchase onsite in Westport as well (based upon availability).

Chateau Westport Resort has graciously offered our riders a discount if you'd like to stay in Westport!

Please visit www.chateauwestport.com and input Ride25 in the coupon code field.

The dates the coupon is good for are 7/24-7/28 so you can stay and enjoy Westport for a few more days! Chateau Westport Resort has also removed the 2-night minimum requirement for this event, so if you only want to stay for 1 night you can.

Yes. Local laws may restrict certain e-bike use on sidewalks, for example Class 3 will not be allowed on the final section of the Westport Light Trail. As the Ride the Harbor route mostly follows city streets and county highways, you may use Class 1 or Class 2 e-bikes.

Unfortunately, we do not have the resources to coordinate and streamline this aspect of the ride. Additionally, all e-riders must be self sufficient, and are responsible for charging their bikes and carrying the tools they need.

We will have volunteer support crews (SAG vehicles) throughout the ride, however, we do not require that they be well versed in e-bikes. We cannot guarantee that they will be able to fix mechanical problems on e-bikes. Additionally, our support vehicles may not have bike racks that can carry the additional weight of an e-bike.

Having organized athletic events for a few years, we have found that regardless of rain on the day, invariably things work out well to the benefit of the athletes. Unless we have unsafe conditions like the air quality issues due to wildfires, the ride will go on. Our volunteers still come out and staff all the necessary rest stops, our SAG drivers are committed to helping in whatever way they can, and the rides still depart at their appointed times.

Rest assured, regardless of the forecast, the Tour de Wellness will go forward and we urge you to come and enjoy the day with us. If riding in the rain is simply not your thing but you have raised funds, please come down and drop off any remaining donations and enjoy the BBQ lunch at the finish line!

Most often, those who choose to soldier on find that riding in the face of adversity provides them with a more fulfilling experience and certainly epic stories to tell.
