Cyclo X   III & IV

The Guy on the left was the eventual winner. If I'd showed you some of the other shots at this spot, even of his closest rivals, I think you'd notice an important difference. That is the focus of his attention is already way past the current hazard.

I don't know that the guy on the left was the back marker, but he can't have been far off. Although it looks a lot more leisurely his heart and lungs would probably tell a different tale.

I say tough...

and rough terrain with what looks like street bikes! Yikes! I think that makes it way harder than it has to be! Kind of hard to keep traction goin' with those treads...Great action shots, Chris, keeping the highlights in control under these circumstances would be hard for me...Good job. :o)
