    Hi X,
    It's about a 20-30 min from Canadian border crossing at Blaine, WA...about 90 miles north of Seattle...

    Bellingham is a nice little city with fun shops and stuff.
    It's midway between Seattle and the Canadian Border.
    NONE of us live anywhere near it though.
    There is a great italian restaurant there.

    Easy. Reckless Cycles has acceptable road bikes.

    But we can also just drink beer!!

    Whoops. My mistake, sorry. I somehow had it in my head you were coming to Victoria for a day. I gotta pay better attention.

    Don't be depressed; there's only so much you can cram into your trip and hopefully, you'll have a relaxed, fun time w/o driving and driving all over.

    I agree w/Mimi - Bellingham (and Fairhaven, the historical district and port for the Alaska Marine Hwy system aka ferry) is cute and has plenty to see and do; it's just too far to drive on a work/weeknight...as my morning starts @5!

    As mentioned before somewhere in the mists of forum chatter, I live in downtown Van.

    After living in Ontario for over 40 yrs., also visiting Calgary several times and other parts of Alberta (Edmonton, Rockies, Waterton national park area, etc.) and also through Bellingham several times.....it is safe to say..... downtown Vancouver area has some beautiful vistas and things to do.

    We live at the foot of the famed Seawall bike path... really it kills me to see hundreds of bikes in our building's communal bike locker...not used often. There are enough routes and scenery to inspire enough people to bike and jog in our area.
    http://www3.telus.net/public/hjbecke...s/image018.htm There are other near-photos here...of your native country...CC.

    And yes (for 1 of the slides), we did bike touring in the Canadian Maritime provinces for 3 wks.

    I can appreciate your problem in trip planning CC. Must be like Australia...big country, little time to see all the things you wish.

    wait!

    Right...don't give up on us not going to Seattle quite yet. Ian had a look at the distance from Calgary & it's not that far in his mind..

    So, there might be light @ the end of the tunnel...

    Okay! I'm right next door to Coeur d'Alene! And on the way to Seattle. So you have to at least stop, have a cup of coffee and say Hi! bikerHen
