If you're ever in the Seattle area it's well worth a visit (a pleasant ferry ride from downtown)


Nice link, PJ520. I might get there. My sister lives just over the border in White Rock, and I toured the Olympic Peninsula from there on a tandem.

If you're in The Netherlands, Velorama in Nijmegen is worth a visit. It's the Dutch national bicycle museum & was created from the estate of a private collector. They've even got an original Starley Rover! I found it by accident while travelling to Arnhem for the annual memorial service which is held close to the anniversary of the battle.
