| Burning Man |
Trying to explain what Burning Man is to someone who has never been to the event is a bit like trying to explain what a particular color looks like to someone who is blind. In this section you will find the peripheral definitions of what the event is as a whole, but to truly understand this event, one must participate. This site serves to try to paint a picture of the Burning Man experience to those who are new to the project, as well as to give those participants looking to keep the fire burning in their daily lives an environment in which to connect to their fellow community members.
There are no rules about how one must behave or express oneself at this event (save the rules that serve to protect the health, safety, and experience of the community at large); rather, it is up to each participant to decide how they will contribute and what they will give to this community. The event takes place on an ancient lakebed, known as the playa. By the time the event is completed and the volunteers leave, sometimes nearly a month after the event has ended, there will be no trace of the city that was, for a short time, the most populous town in the entire county. Art is an unavoidable part of this experience, and in fact, is such a part of the experience that Larry Harvey, founder of the Burning Man project, gives a theme to each year, to encourage a common bond to help tie each individual's contribution together in a meaningful way. Participants are encouraged to find a way to help make the theme come alive, whether it is through a large-scale art installation, a theme camp, gifts brought to be given to other individuals, costumes, or any other medium that one comes up with. |

| Sea Otter Classic |
The Sea Otter Classic offers a terrific assortment of athletic competition, recreational bicycle rides and family entertainment. The Sea Otter Classic experience is one of excitement throughout the Laguna Seca Recreation Area. The Village is a collage of color and activity: people on bicycles of all shapes and sizes, children running around the grassy areas in the middle of the Marketplace, novice riders learning tricks, professional BMX tricksters doing flips, and all the while, amateurs and pros alike lining up at the track's Start/Finish line for road and mountain-bike races. And that's just in the Sea Otter Village!
Look up from the Village at any time and you'll see cyclists racing around the track, mountain bikers riding Dual Slalom and Mountain Cross tracks, and Short track trails.

| The Great Western Bicycle Rally |
The Great Western Bicycle Rally provides a getaway bicycling weekend like no other. Each Memorial Day Weekend, the little community we like to call Bicycletown, USA magically springs to life as cyclists from all over the West gather at the fairgrounds in Paso Robles, California for the annual Great Western Bicycle Rally. The headquarters building becomes our city hall, various vendors attending the Rally become our shops and the many participants visiting or camping on the fairgrounds become our residents. In 2005 12 year old Alana Michels was elected Mayor of Bicycletown and will preside over the Rally in 2006. For three days, Bicycletown residents forget the real world as they cycle through the beautiful central California countryside, engage in friendly competitions and spend the evenings socializing with other cyclists. Join us for the cycling time of your life. Maybe YOU will be elected Mayor of BicycleTown for next year's Rally.
