Few parts of the United States can rival what Bellingham means to the mountain bike industry.
Bellingham is home to just under 100,000 people and is surrounded on all sides by staggeringly beautiful landscapes, from the Salish Sea to the west to Mount Baker and the North Cascades to the east, and all manner of lush PNW greenery in virtually every direction. The city sits 20 minutes south of the Canadian border, providing quick and easy access to a whole slew of world-class options in British Columbia, and conversely, is the first stop for Canadians trekking into the States looking for fresh stashes of trail.
