The Sea Otter Classic may not be the sporting event that the Super Bowl is (the name might have something to do with that), it is significant in the world of biking. No, we're not talking about the leather and chains crowd, we're more the Speedo (shudder) and BMX crowd. The festival encompasses just about every major branch of bicycling, including (of course) downhill, jumping contests, BMX, dual slalom and road biking. Seeing as these were the guys that would be most into this, Sony decided to descend upon the festival to give festival goers a very early, and very exclusive look at the game.



Kiosks scattered throughout a 10' x 20' booth at the Laguna Seca raceway (yep, that Laguna Seca) in Seaside, CA will help whet the appetites of the event's 60,000-plus spectator crowd. To make sure everyone knows they're there, various scattered signage and PA announcements will be sure to tip the crowd off.



The Sea Otter Classic started yesterday and continues on through the weekend. For directions to the event and a chance to check out Downhill Domination (y'know, besides checking out the info we brought you earlier this week), you can hit up the festival's official web site here for directions and more info.
