Yes, a lot of people will be riding a section of this route during this weekend's Tour des Lacs. I won't be riding this year, but this is one of the nicest organized rides in the Pacific Northwest. You start in Spokane, WA and you take one of several routes to Harrison, ID. From there I think you can ride the Trail of the Coeur d'Alenes or ride along the lake or take the ferry cruise and drink beer and look at the scenery (what I've usually done when I've taken a partner on the tandem), ending up at Coeur d'Alene itself. On the second day you ride back to Spokane along a scenic route past some lakes. This ride has got to have some of the best food stops around. The only problem is it takes most of Friday to get to Spokane, and then you're driving back on Sunday afternoon/evening. A long drive if you're on the coast, but you feel like you've been somewhere, and the ride is worth it.
