Well, kids, here we are again in Monterey, CA, for the 2026 Sea Otter Classic. Day one of this annual celebration of the bicycle is in full swing! And I thought you might like to see a few random, cool bikes that I’ve come across while making my preliminary rounds. Don’t worry, coverage of the new and shiny stuff is on the way, too.
But, I believe you can’t go forward without paying respects to the past.
Colorful Mercx



Cool Rivendell Atlantis

Nice Ibis (URT anyone?)

Black Mountain Cycles

Tomac? Yeti with a rear Tioga Disc Wheel

Specialized Lugged Carbon

Stumpy!




Well, that’s it for now. I’ll be posting fun and random content throughout the show. Stay tuned here for all of your 2026 Sea Otter Classic coverage.
