5:17 I was at that same mudfest in 2006!! It was my first ever Sea Otter Classic and my *first* downhill race. The conditions were _god awful...._ trying to pedal my nearly 50 lb Ironhorse down that peanut butter like track is still one of the most exhausting experiences of my life. So many people just collapsed at the finish line, covered in mud.

I used to live near there, in fact I went 13 years in a row. One year I won a bike, a Giant pos comp, which I sold in eBay; and the next year I won a Manitou Dorado Pro, which I ran on my dh bike at Northstar for like 3 summers. And this isn’t touching on all the other smaller things I won at raffles. I also remember the year of torrential rain of 06 (Still have my mud-packed pedals from that year in a box with other bike junk) but there was also another year of torrential rain in 04, or 05 I think. I haven’t been in 10 years, though, I wonder if it’s still as good. I miss Sea Otter.

She said Laguna "Sec-ca" twice. 🤦🏼 Class, let's say it out loud so Christina can learn... "Say-ca." Side note... RIP Pole.

I totally LOVE the idea of bike fests and demo shows but... I've never been a fan of waiting a long time in line to ride a normally fun to ride trail super slow from trail congestion. And that's pretty much what you get here on the East Coast....so I totally avoid any crowd. I ride a lot out west as well (Colorado, Utah) on my hardtail and enduro bike AND my emtb...but I've entirely quit riding areas that strictly forbid emtb riding and I refuse to give those trail systems or shops my money any longer. The destructive stigma that emtb's have gotten over the last few years is a complete fabrication of smug purists.

I should care about it because people like to race there? Racing is irrelevant to my enjoyment of the sport. So are massive press events.

Someone calls it gay. I personally refer to it as s0domy, perverted intercourse. Nothing gay about it. Just ask that population about sVicid3 rates, @buse, dise@se, d3pression.
