Tour de Whatcom August 4, 2007

Come join us for Tour de Whatcom, a bike ride to help Boys & Girls Clubs of Whatcom County.

The ride begins and ends in Bellingham’s Fairhaven district. This unique neighborhood with its cobbled lanes is perhaps better known for its beautifully preserved historical buildings from the boom days of the 1890s. It’s bustling with galleries, shops and a bevy of dining options. Fairhaven also serves as an access point for several waterfront parks, trails and the scenic and historic Chuckanut Drive. Local artisans’ works and wares are plentiful. Fairhaven maintains a reputation as a bohemian enclave of students, artists and granolas. The nature of the inhabitants is reflected in the cafes, bookstores and unique restaurants which are, for the most part, housed in Romanesque brick buildings. Fairhaven is widely recognized as one of the most charming districts in the Pacific Northwest.
