Sea Otter Experience

The Sea Otter classic is a major bicycling event in the nation and it happens in California. Laguna Seca Raceway in Monterey to be exact. www.seaotterclassic.com They have road bike racing, Mountain bike Racing, a huge exposition area, food etc..

I signed up for the Cross Country race.. It's 19 miles of Mountain bike riding through various terrain including the nasty 6 inch or so deep sand. It turned out that my rear wheel broke in a way that was not repairable and I had to quit the race about 7 miles into it. Disappointing. I carried my bike back a quarter mile or more to a place that had a race official. I said I needed a ride back because my bike was broke. Then I started making lots of observations...
