SEA OTTER CLASSIC POSTPONED DUE TO CORONAVIRUS CONCERNS

COVID-19 concerns prompt cancellation of the event

The Sea Otter Classic is North America’s big start to the racing season for almost all of cycling, be it road, mountain, downhill or e-MTB racing. The event, held each year at the Laguna Seca race track near Monterey, California, draws 74,000 fans and 9,800 athletes each year from around the globe.

Frank Yohannon, President and CEO of the Sea Otter Classic, officially announced that they’ve decided to postpone the event due to concerns over the coronavirus.

His letter is as follows:

We are coordinating with local authorities to determine the best dates to host the 2020 Sea Otter Classic and Bicycle Leadership Conference.  We anticipate announcing those dates by the middle of next week.

Thank you again for your understanding and support during these challenging times.
Sincerely,
