Cali Trip

Last month I spent a week in California promoting Colorado to journalists, as well as attending the Sea Otter Classic - the largest biking festival in the country.  I had never been to Los Angeles so I had a great time just walking around Hollywood!

I imagined Lindsey Lohan was causing trouble at the Chateau Marmont

San Fran - always gorgeous

The Sea Otter Classic was a trip.  I never knew biking was so popular!  I was definitely inspired to hop on my bike a lot more.  I was also introduced to Cyclocross, a fairly new sport that is a bike race/obstacle course.  But while the top three go all out, the guys in the back have a great time!  All the spectators hold out beers, drinks, dollar bills and such for them to chug, grab and otherwise make fools of themselves.  It was hilarious and I'm going to try to make a few races this fall.

Also my first time in Monterrey, which also was beautiful -- need to go back one of these days!
