SEQUIM — Locals and tourists can bike their way through Sequim and view tribal art along the way.

Ben’s Bikes shop in Sequim is sponsoring the second Jamestown S’Klallam Totem Tour Annual Recumbent Ride on Saturday and Sunday.

The ride is a self-guided tour and Ben’s Bikes will provide maps of all the totem poles participants can visit in Sequim.

Many are accessible from Olympic Discovery Trail.

Participants can follow the totems all the way to the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe campus in Blyn where they can visit the carving shop if it is open.

Riders also can enter their names into a raffle to win Ben’s Bikes prizes such as hats and T-shirts when they pick up a guide map at Ben’s Bikes shop.

Interested riders can visit Ben’s Bikes at 1251 W. Washington St., Sequim, and pick up a Totem Tour map.

The shop is open daily from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.
