Mountain State Cup Mountain Bike series

I just came back from a day at Keystone Resort in Colorado shooting the downhill division of the State Cup series. It was a great day for me. I got to visit Loveland Pass, and Keystone resort for the first time. It was also the first downhill Competition I have been able to go to. Ok, these guys are nuts. I love mountain biking and downhill, but not at the speed these guys and girls were going through the course. I was setting myself up to shoot this one drop on the course when a rider came flying by me and went head over heels with his bike into a tree. I had to pull the bike off the course and was bittersweet about missing the chance to photo the crash, but was glad the rider was ok. Well maybe, he was moaning and grabbing one leg, but got ion his bike and continued down the course. Photos will be up soon for this event.
