Life Time Sea Otter Classic

Each April, the Sea Otter Classic Foundation proudly supports our namesake event, the Life Time Sea Otter Classic. Our Foundation recruits and manages the event’s more than 1,100 volunteers, coordinating nearly 1,500 shifts and over 6,000 hours of support to make the event a success.

Known as the world’s premier cycling festival, the Sea Otter Classic draws over 9,000 athletes and 74,000 fans to Monterey, California, each spring. The four-day celebration of cycling features racing, recreational rides, and the chance to demo the latest gear from more than 1,000 brands. It is an event and mission so successful that it has now spread to Europe and Australia.
