Default Bellingham - WOW!

I see where crispus posted a few video links to the Bellingham, Wa ride this year, but I think this is a different one:

Anyway - WOW! I'm extremely impressed. They might have held this on Fremont day, though. But anyway, you are looking at the best daytime WNBR on the west coast here! Seriously, looks like several hundred (200 or more) and lots of young women. I had never given this ride serious thought, but it would be great to attend. And if this is Bellinghams biggest ride yet, it just shows you that at least in some locations, the WNBR is getting better each year.

ITs not a great vid, but you get the idea - mainly, its a big ride....to top Seattle, San Francisco, and all of the other major west coast cities is no mean feat. Kudos to the organizers and its maybe like the Brighton vs London phemonemon. People maybe feel a little more relaxed knowing that the big crowds and photogs are looking elsewhere.

EDIT: the ride was Jun 6th. 120 people rode last year and it looks like 200 or more this year - definately a ride to watch!!
