Fun in the Sun - Sea Otter + Santa Cruz

Many of the large domestic professional women's teams and current elite riders from all over the US made the trip to Monterey, Ca for the 2010 Sea Otter Classic this past weekend - the races were fast and lots of fun. Sea Otter seemed especially well organized this year and the 4-day event enjoyed beautiful, warm weather. Annie and Susannah toughed it out in the RR with @ 45 other riders on Friday - with SBB finishing 17th followed by Annie at 23rd.

The premier event, the Sea Otter Circuit Race, was held Saturday and more than 50 riders attended the WP1/2 race. Held on the Mazda Laguna Seca Raceway - the women raced for 2 hrs over the hilly, 2.2 mile circuit. Susannah was a bit tired from the previous day's event, but Cody rode strong and finished in the main group for 20th.

Cody represented the team on Sunday at the Santa Cruz Classic.   Many of the same riders from  Sea Otter attended Sunday's crit and continued the trend of fast-pace racing in the WP1/2/3 category. The course was merciless with riders dropping out every lap. Cody finished strong in 18th, among an elite group of NorCal and US based riders.
