This was my 2nd year planning the expo area at our Giro di SF and I’m happy to report that it was a smooth operation! Weather is a key factor in planning outdoor events so I was very excited when I found out there was a sunny weather forecast for Labor Day weekend.
A fun expo involves vendor participation and this year our expo area was filled with The Free Wheel’s bike support service, Giant Bike’s 2011 race bikes, De La Paz iced coffee, Bear Naked granola, Flex Power sports cream (see photo on right of me with Flex Power friends), Sports Basement’s lounge area, Rock Tape’s taping station, Breakaway Performance’s consultation, and even a banana costume. Our vendors also sponsored the Giro with numerous prize donations for primes, a motivating component of a criterium. Overall, the beautiful SF weather brought an amazing race day and spectators enjoyed cheering for their cyclists. Thank you to all the competitors, sponsors, and volunteers for making this year’s Giro a success!
