I was recently at a meeting of the Santa Barbara Bicycle Coalition and was told they're looking for volunteer course marshalls for the inaugural "Tour of California" sponsored by Amgen in late February. There will be professional bicycle racing teams on this tour.
I don't have Hubert's email address so I'm sending it to the list to see if SBARC is able to help.
Here is the website for the tour:
