Sea Otter Classic 2026

I am a husband and a dad of 2 children (one grown up with a good job and the other will happily stay with us at home due to autism). I started out on a Huffy BMX in the late 70's jumping plastic crates off a 2x6 board and kept going higher until the bike broke (thankfully not me). Once I got a driving license, bikes were more for the odd novelty scenic tour than a hobby. Now that I have more time and live next to the Open Space in Walnut Creek, I'm back riding... a lot! Full Suspension, hardtails, and a new gravel bike are in the stable. Don't plan to go full roadie, so will stick to the dirt and gravel for now.
