Was that before, or after, you bombed the descent, blew the stop sign, and flicked off the guy who nearly hit you?

shovel's pics are epic. esp. the 2nd one where he's crossing the line with the group charging in.

clearly not as impressive as shovels pics, but i do get to play the "i race in crap weather" card.

going from the gun (with a borrowed helmet that was a size too large, doh) -



sometime later, during the break.

What's more impressive is the look of suffering on the faces of the guys behind you. Black kit is definitely in the pain cave, and red/black kit looks like he's saying to himself "must hold on"

This is one is perfect... crowd applauding, arms up, sponsors banners everywhere, race clock and with a charging peloton in the distance.

Agreed, that's a great pic. Frame it

I still have my Austin Rocks pic on my desk. (and my wife actually had it printed on a canvas for decorating at home)
