On the mountain bike side, most of day one at the Sea Otter Classic was practice and qualifying. The weather was perfect, all fun in the sun.

All of the courses are in great shape, the Olympic Style BMX course looks awesome with some huge bowl turns, big jumps and a couple good rhythm sections. I'd love a chance to get out and kill myself on it...

Saw some cool new stuff from Tomac, and even though I might be a little biased, the new Pivot Mach 429 is awesome if you're into the 29er thing. More details will are on the way.
