    Obviously I didn't take these.

    Here I am jumping a creek on a training ride. As you can see by the look on my face I wasn't sure I'd hit this fast enough and therefore wasn't sure I'd land it. I did ... with a thump but stayed upright! As any pilot will tell you ... any landing that doesn't involve crashing is a good landing!
    ANYONE can jump ... but you have to be good to Land


    This is me at a 24hr race but I'm not racing. I'm in flouro because I'm doing the photo taking for the race promoters and this is a shot of me moving to my next shoot location.

    If thats you on the bike, who took the shots? They are pretty nice. I like the first one. The look on your face is like, OH ****! This is going to be close!

    Photography is more than just taking a picture and freezing the action, or leaving the shutter open. It is more than orchestrating the image with the stroke of a brush. Its the realization and explanation that reality is an isolated experience in which only a specific individual can comprehend during any given time period. - Your Truly!

    I can't remember who I handed my camera to for that first shot. The 2nd one was taken by a friend who takes a few. Not a great shot, I've seen him do much better but photos of me are rare ... I'm not a prolific self portraiture like SOMEONE I know

    And you are dead right ...that's EXACTLY what I was thinking :(
    I hit hard but rolled on safetly.

    Great shots MA: you certainly have that look in the first one! They both look like good places to ride.

    Lots of good places to ride up here within 30 mins of the CBD Greg

    That really is a bad jump attempt in that first shot. I'm better when I keep it low and just ride. I collect more plaques and trophies that way
