NorCal League CycleFest hits fundraising target

The Northern California High School Mountain Bike Racing League (NorCal League) hit its fundraising target of US$50,000 at its annual CycleFest weekend on November 7-9.

The three-day gathering in the Bay Area featured a candid, armchair interview with Tour de France hero Levi Leipheimer (Astana) at the gala dinner. A grand total of 410 people attended Friday's cocktail party, Saturday's gala dinner and auction, and Sunday's 44-mile ride with Leipheimer and 120 riders with a police escort.
