A week or so ago it was the National Club Cycling Championships up at the Sunshine Coast. I rode in the teams time trial on the Friday and the Road Race on Saturday but skipped the criterium on the Sunday due to the course being rather dangerous and crash intensive. I was actually going to take photos on one of the big hill during the road race as I haven't really been doing much training and wasn't expecting to get too far into the 169km race. However I was still there at the end of lap 12 or 13 and was looking good for finshing with the 12 or so guys out of 80 who remained in the main bunch until I got a flat tire and the vehicle with my spare wheel in it was miles back following some other bunch.

Anyway I finally looked at a few of the images at lunch yesterday. No.1 was the first guy going through the first corner of the race. (File size is about 350KB)

Crash

This was the eventual winner who broke away from the main bunch with one other rider less than 5 minutes in to the hour long race.







Here are some links of me actually(me on the left) racing,hard.

I like these....the colours are lovely and the cyclists are sharp..

second one is also my favourite. Very nice.

Nice shots. Some good ones in your gallery as well. Cheers, Mick

Great shots Petal666. You are showing here you skills in panning. The three photos have lovely colours, are very sharp, and have crisp images. As far as composition is concerned, I think I prefer the third one, but all of them are very good. Well done!
