Life Time Sea Otter Classic is an annual cycling and outdoor festival produced by Life Time and held in Monterey, California. Bringing together riders, racers, families, outdoor enthusiasts, and the cycling industry, the four-day event celebrates bikes, trails, and community. Its program features competitions across mountain biking, gravel, eMTB, cross-country, downhill, dual slalom, and enduro, alongside recreational rides, two Gran Fondos, and an off-road tour. The festival also offers a Trail Run with two distances, welcoming runners, hikers, and walkers, with the shorter course open to families and strollers.

Visitors can explore the Sea Otter Expo, a large consumer bicycle exhibition featuring more than 1,000 brands, product demonstrations, trials shows, and opportunities to meet industry representatives and cycling personalities. Ride Zones let children and adults try the latest bikes and equipment, including helmets, seats, and packs. Family activities include kids’ races, a pump track, carnival games, and an annual egg hunt.
