January 19-20 and February 16-17. CYC MidWInters. Not CYC's 20th, mine! The CYC Midwins must be at least 30 years old now. Most likely, the Miwok competed in leather-covered canoes as they paddled over to what we now call Angel Island to gather shells and hunt deer. Think about it, MidWinter boat races have been here for centuries.

If the Miwok had had a YRA, they'd probably still be racing today. But enough history...
