Amazing Bicycling Bonanza in April and my Sea Otter Classic mountain bike race!

Karen By Kris Suta Pederson KrisCanXS

I am wrapping up an amazing weekend of bicycling adventures that included the 20th annual Sea Otter Classic at the Laguna Seca Recreation area in Monterey; a talk by Jim Sayer, Executive Director of Adventure Cycling Association Friday night in Santa Cruz about the new 2,400 mile Sierra Cascades Bicycle Route; and the Santa Cruz Classic Criterium, an action-packed bike race with top notch talent that happened here in Beach Hill in downtown Santa Cruz on Sunday.



Here are the stories I wrote about the Sea Otter Classic:
