SeaOtter
MONTEREY,CA
Slalom Saturday. This is the best event at Sea otter, but today was the windiest, coldest, slalom day I can remember, painfully frigid. I had 7 layers on, like a burrito, and was still cold. I am not racing, but here supporting Bryn, sponsors 
, friends, hiking bikes, having fun, etc. Two races left in my BMX selection process, so mountain bikes can wait for a little bit:) But I love them all the same. New gear, bikes, parts, and teams make Sea Otter special, but mostly it's a reunion of sorts, first race of the 2008 season, minus the XC bandits who are over in Belgium racing a world cup. Enough pictures to make up for the story?...
MEN'S SLALOM 1st.Minnaar, 2nd. Peaty 
, 3rd. Neethling. 4th Kurt Voreis
WOMEN'S SLALOM 1st.Sabo 
, 2nd. Buhly, 3rd. Fee, 4th. Rachel Atherton.
Slalom qualification combines a run on both sides, red and blue side. Bryn had 3rd fastest qualifier on one course and a slide out on the second qualifier, so his combined time didn't make the cut. :( unlucky.
