Organized Chaos



As I kick back in our team hotel I can't help but think back to my first Sea Otter experience 6 years ago.... Somehow I managed to sleep in the back of my Volvo wagon in Safeway's parking lot and not think twice. Nothing but my bike, Joe Friel's Training Bible and jar of peanut butter. Glory days....



The complete chaos that surrounds this event can be nothing short of overwhelming. I got lost somewhere inbetween dodging the downhill grommits, the free beer tents and the short shorts.



Consider this a gift....A little something to replace that same old wallpaper you look at everyday as you log on. Gary Fisher has something figured out....
