CA Bike Fest





We spent Saturday at the California Bike Fest; an event to help raise money for the Breakaway for Cancer effort.

It was a beautiful day to spend on the boardwalk in Ventura. The sun was shining on the ocean as the first group of riders left for the 100K ride. Some had "sherpas"; well known pros like Ivan Dominguez (sp?), Freddie Rodriguez (sp?), Wayne Statina and more!


There were also shorter rides, a family ride, a trike race and a cyclo cross race. Agoura Cycles was one of 56 booths at the Expo portion of the event. It was a place to get a great deal on some product, demo a GIANT bicycle, pick up a free copy of Road Bike Action magazine, or just enjoy the beach.


All in all a long day on the legs, but it's always great to see such a huge interest in cycling whether you are a recreational rider, a cyclocross racer, commuter, or just getting onto your first set of training wheels....it's all fun:) and for a good cause.
