The Mare Island Naval Shipyard was a thriving center of industry for more than 100 years, but it has been largely dormant since 1996. Now things are starting to pick up, with the Mare Island Brewing Company leading the charge in redevelopment and bringing unique events to this beautiful spot in Vallejo, California.
The Mare Island Pedalfest aims to show off the in-progress renaissance of the island with an urban cyclocross race, BMX rodeo and a family-friendly lap of the shipyard.
I took on the urbancross race with three teammates from Benicia High School. We called ourselves the Local Yokels. It was a blast!
