When I was researching bikes, I found this review of the Canyon Spectral 29 which was done in Bellingham. The trails look good!

Any reason not to do other BC destinations? Squamish, North Shore etc? I'm going to be in Seattle/Vancouver but over New Year

already done Squamish/ Pembo etc on many previous trips to whistler. Bellingham is only about 1:45 mins from Van airport....and the trails system looks pretty awesome....

I rode in Bellingham in 2019 - so good! High quality trail riding where you can work for the vert. And so much loam.

adding to this, looks like I am doing the Rag Brai L....... this 2024 after Whistler, my missus did the ride this year and said it was awesome fun and pretty chilled vibe, lotsa pubs n live bands at nite etc etc. so I'm looking at flying to Sioux city with a few days spare to wait for the missus n crew to arrive. I know this is a long shot but has anyone ridden the trails in or around Sioux City?

For RAGBRAI riders, decorating roadkill is a lively tradition on the 50th anniversary route

RAGBRAI cyclists have created a new kind of party animal by decorating roadkill with beads and wristbands during the ride across Iowa.

sweet, so the local hook up in Bellingham is sorted, Mike and Chris from The lost Co shop and some of the crew are supa keen to show/shuttle around the local trails when I'm there. And to make things even sweeter, Bellingham now has 20 microbrews all within pub bike ride distance
tickets booked with Air Canada, supa deal at the moment $1300 return Bne- YVR direct
Already counting down...... should be fun
