We finally rolled into Seaside, CA at 11:45 last night, just in time for a quick shower and 5 and a half hours sleep before heading to the show this morning to get set up for the first day of the 2012 show. After the early morning sea fog had cleared, we were greeted by clear sky’s, no wind, and 70 degree temperatures, a far cry from what we left behind yesterday morning in Portland.

The first day is generally a little quieter than Saturday and Sunday, so if today was anything to go by we are going to be in for a busy weekend. The sun is out, and thousands of racers and fans made it out to Laguna Seca today to enjoy the show.

Highlight of the day for us was definitely unveiling the prototype El Guapo 29er, and we have struggled to keep it at the front of the stand for more than half an hour at a time as everyone wanted to get shots of the only prototype of our new model to reach North America.

If you are planning on coming to the show, be sure to stop by the team area to check out our booth (we are right on the corner backing onto the lake). If not, here’s some of what we have on show:

2012 Titus Rockstar 29er

Guerciotti Scarponi Road

Guerciotti Lambeek Cyclocross

Planet X Exocet 2 (Guru Team Edition)

That’s all for today. It’s time to head into town to wash of the sand and refuel. Tomorrow, I’ll be leaving the confines of our booth and heading out to bring you the best of what everyone else has on show so stay tuned for updates.
