World's Premier Cycling Festival
Kick off the cycling season on the California coast at the world's premier cycling festival.

If you're looking to RACE + RIDE + DEMO, welcome home. Meet us in glorious Monterey, California, for the official start of the season at the Life Time Sea Otter Classic presented by Continental. Test ride the latest gear from 1,000+ bike brands and converse with cycling legends at the Sea Otter Expo. Rip through gnarly gravel and shred down massive berms in one of our 12 Races. Embrace the beauty of biking with our untimed Recreational Rides.

The Sea Otter Classic is more than a festival. More than a race. More than an Expo. It's where the world comes to celebrate cycling.
