STORM Hill Country and Paris-Nice
It might be hard to combine something like the STORM Hill Country Mountain Bike Challenge and the Paris-Nice Cycling Race in one article….but putting them both together in one photo post just doubles the amount of viewing goodness.
Check out some photos I took from last weekend’s Mountain Bike Race at Flat Rock Ranch in Comfort, Texas as well as some shots my friend Cristi Ruhlman took at the Paris-Nice on the weekend.
Bryan Kreitz of Team Bicycle Sport Shop Austin in the Cat 1 – 30 to 39 age group
Anthony Brand of Bikeland Factory Developmental Team in the Cat 1 (age 19-29)
The Cat 2’s take off from the start line
The Cat 2 (age 30-34) podium: Tim Rawlins, Jason Silva, and Wes Jerman in first
Austin’s Shontell Gauthier of Austin Flyers Women’s Cycling took first in the Women’s Cat 1 Pro
Watch for this kid….Jorge Munoz Jr from Laredo, TX is only 13 years old and took 1st in the Cat 3 19-29 age category
Paris-Nice 2011: Andreas Kloden
Cristi takes some shots while sitting at the Café Cycliste in a town just around Grasse
I hope to attend one of these pro races with Cristi in the near future
Love these pics… are they the work of Mr @scratchex or are you getting that good with your camera?
We used @scratchex’s photos in the Mountain Flyer post (http://www.mountainflyermagazine.com/view.php/storm-hill-country-mountain-bike-challenge.html), so I used my own photos in this one so I could get some different shots. Usually my wife is the camera expert, but she was busy with the kids so I got behind the lense.
But, I hope to have a whole lot more of Gomez’ photos up here in the future.
