Photos!

Got some GREAT shots by THE one and ONLY Mark SOOOOOOOOOOOOUPS Suprenant. You can see his photos in Velonews and on blogs of folks around New England.

The one shot I asked "did you get it" with me jumping. Well he got it, he got the launch. I stuck the landing perfectly, floated down rear wheel just before the front and zoomed off. It was wicked fun. There's another shot with me doing the BMX keep the wheels on the ground extension.




That green guy at the bottom of the hill between me and Kevin Buckley is the one I mentioned that was killing me in the flat sections but I'd gain lots of ground here and on the run up.
John Foley, 29er crew dude was behind me for a while, I actually passed him, but after the barriers before the sand he took off - sort of like he decided it was time to start racing and boom he was GONE.


Here's G-Ride....

BMX'n the 'jump' in full extension. Already putting pressure on the pedals at that point.

And G-ride doing the hop over in the same place.

Great shots thanks Soups!

Great race too. Awesome course. I love me some NoHo/CSI/whateveryawannacallit.

Oh yeah, now I realize you weren't there for Sunday when we rode down the Saturday run/rideup ramp and straight into the "big air" tracks jump. Many people got carried away with it and overcooked the subsequent left hand sweeper, hit the tape, and then had to park it for the switch back to the right. The latter turn lead into a little straightaway, and exit speed was crucial.
