Bellingham's LEAST Popular Trails
ฝัง

- As diligent, adventurous mountain bikers, Christina and Tom know how to sniff out the best trails when travelling. But, what about the lesser ridden trails that go forgotten about? Guided by the Trailforks popularity map, Tom and Christina set off on a mission to tackle the least trafficked trails that Bellingham has to offer. Can't be that bad right?!

Tom could find a way to be stoked standing in line at the DMV. He and Christina together are a match made in video heaven. PB did themselves a massive favor not letting Tom leave after the academy.
Thanks heaps! I have to admit, I have never stood in a DMV line, it could be my ultimate test - Tom
I agree, what a gem of a video
Tom just changed his Garmin from Celsius to pounds! He's on a different level! 🤣
How do I change it back?!?!?! - Tom
@@pinkbike why do you want to!?!
Fastest click ever, my 2 fav pink bike presenters. Ooh the atmosphere looks amazing on these trails 😍
Thanks Tyler! Appreciate that a lot. Hope you enjoyed our shenanigans -Christina
Classic. Comes to Bellingham, rides hiking the trails
haha we had to make sure we saw allll Bellingham has to offer. 10/10 would visit again -Christina
@@pinkbike agreed, Bellingham is the tits thanks for making a cool vid!
Good chemistry with these two, you can tell they have fun riding together. Just like a good day riding with your friends, just laughs and jokes and a few whoops thrown in!
Stoked for more ideas from both of you! This video really shows the experience I had of searching for trails in a new home after I moved just before shutdown. Glad to be at a point where I can connect with riders and get toured around. Although I can't wait to get up to BHAM to ride, I think I'll skip that climb.
This is absolutely outstanding.
Thank you for showcasing some gorgeous MTB heaven.
the atmosphere of these trails are amazing!
Super beautiful (and cold) few days down there -Christina
Would love to go for a ride with you 2. Stoke levels are always high. Just riding down to the shop would be fun with Tom and Christina. Love your work.
Feet are used in place of meters because it makes the climb look more impressive. Miles are used to make the hike seem shorter. That's why I clock my speed using Km/h. Makes me look 1.6 times faster.
Pine and Cedar Lakes is tough to climb! The Bellingham mountaineers do a weekly slog up it for them hiking muscles. I was gonna laugh if you did east lost trail into 'Access Trail' on the south side it's pretty brutal.
Nice job guys on the video. Wow your loop up the hiking trail to pine and cedar lake was right on point for your title of this video. When I first moved to Bellingham 21 years ago I rode that loop and have never done it since sooooo many better options. So steep its a push your bike hiking trail. I have ridden the down trails you took a few times as well. Since I have ridden that loop of trails you did, I have to let everyone else know..... every other trial around, literally every option (100 miles of other trials ) are better than that ride in Bellingham area. Ok I guess there is one, If you like a worse trail, try the Ridge trail right on top of the ridge you went up to, its a true trials ride and a way to punish your self if you like that kind of thing. Congrats you guys did a great job making it look like a good fun ride which was the point of the video.
Great vid! Tom and Christina have good chemistry
This looks like so many of the Pacific NW trails. I love climbing!!!
But it is the downhill that you are climbing for!!!
That you for taking us along with you. :)
12:48 the old school "Weeeeeee" is back in style! Yesssss!
Haha that was awesome, I love a good blind adventure on bikes
Around me, there are only lesser-ridden trails. Zero actual mtb tracks, but I can access an endless lifetime of tractor scars from logging. They're surprisingly fun when you find good ones, but a day out exploring comes with no guarantees of a single decent run, lol. Afaik, I'm the only mountain biker here, except for some folks riding XC on the fire roads. But the dirt and terrain is incredible, just need the decades of development like Bellingham has!
"Your hiking muscles are in your brain." Yep. quite true.
Haha! I knew the name of that area sounded familiar- it's right by Larrabee State Park Campground, an EXCELLENT place to camp and check out the coast when visiting. Visiting to ride the GOOD trails that is xD
That was Super enjoyable to watch. Maybe not the MOST enjoyable to ride, but isn't it all about the Adventure? Great attititudes you guys. Love it. Bring us MORE!!
3:12 toms askin the real questions
Cool episode! - Oi Tom, you definitely need to step up your top cap game^^ I can imagine to see you rocking a classic. You are what you drink! :9
I'm really happy to watch this video, the track is cool, the rider skill is perfect good job bro
I was looking for an mtb since last year October. Crazy, couldn't find anything anywhere. Yet, finally yesterday I was able to purchase a Marin rift zone 3. So happy 😃 and I can't wait for the spring to start ☀️🚴
'Merica!
Screeching bald eagles and NASCAR.
Hell yeah, brother!
What Garmin’s are you guys using? Love your videos together! Keep up the good work!
this is great mountain biking none of that cable trolly "adventure park" malarkey.
‘Pretty decent’ lunch spot? Holy sn*cks that was gorgeous!
I just wanna know what bike rack hitch y’all have on your tundra!
Tough and beautiful!!
Anyone else dying to see a Christina bike check?
if you guys like this you should circumnavigate Mt Erie on Fidalgo island... Did that. ..once.
There are much better ways to the top.....😄Hush / Hush is a great trail.....missed Double Black / Double Down and Upper Ridge.....next time (after Chappetta's knee heals).
Definitely on my hit list, especially the climb!
Freedom metrics is my favourite new word
Double Down was one of my favorites in that trail system. Haven't ridden there in 4 years though. May have changed.
Awesome ❤❤😊
Proper sufferfest. That's what PNW winters are for!
Anybody see the mouse run by at 14:33?
Kazimer’s the real deal eh?
Every trail hub has that one access road you COULD ride up, but the grade sucks ass and the scenery blows. Single track climbs are nearly always superior.
Hey the measurement of the foot came from England.
If my trails were that good I’d be a pro by now
Tell you what, bet I know what else be dank out there. 😏
I thought you were both Orbea riders?
Bring back the Meta HT
Whats not to like......
Come to crested butte!
climbing Pine and Cedar.... hahahahahahaahhaha
They didn't even ride up "The Wall" yes its name is "The Wall"
Yeah, Bellingham's worst is better than most.
What bikes does y’all have
I'm riding the Trek Slash and Tom was on his Commencal Meta AM -Christina
The Trek is climing really good for so much travel
@@angeloderpate1577 Thanks! I've taken that bike on many many mega huge days (for me anyway) and even with the coil shock, I'm always happy to have it! -Christina
What shoelaces does y'all have?
@@gatoryak7332 Soooo Tom runs a traditional lace setup with a velcro strap at top and I run the quick-lace system, also with a velcro strap at top to remain extra secure -Christina
Climbs are usually unpopular. I personally love climbs provided those climbs are with an uplift service.
I retract my mustard comment Tom, i just got that coat for cold weather biking and apres ski!
PIN IF PINKBIKE IS AWSOME
Scraping the bottom of last barrel folks. I want my 14 minutes back
Least favorite no more
are they two dating ?
wanna hook me up with a bike? my old one is too small, its a quite rusty trek calibrer 6
No
@@ifthisisyou5125 lol hi
pinkbike needs a good recycling honestly. Its getting boring.
Hi, friend!! great video and greetings🙋 #ivan_mtb
I love this series. Please reach out to Evergreen MTB on IG. Local WA state non-profit that builds trails all around the state. The best trails are Duthie Park and Port Gamble Trails, strongly suggest a short 3 hour drive down! Yewwww
