Brian Astell beats Liam Killeen at Lake Sonoma Race!
On March 22nd, Team Lost Coast Brewery members Amon 
Pease and Brian Astell headed to Lake Sonoma to do a local warm up race in anticipation of the NMBS race to be held in Fontana the following weekend. Turns out a buch of other professionals had that idea because the pro men's field was stacked! Brian and Amon battled it out on their Marin bikes and after a fast, hard race, Brian ended up in 4th place, beating Liam Killeen by 5 seconds! Yes, I mean the Liam Killeen, winner of the Sea Otter Classic and Commonwealth Games gold medalist! Amon also had a great race, coming in 9th in the packed field.
