Round two of the HRCA mountain bike race series was a great one. Photographically, it was a blast to shoot. Things were bumpy at first as we had two lightning delays (hazard of an evening race during a Colorado summer), then yet another delay for a 911 call somewhere out on the trail system that was unrelated to the race but blocked the course for some time as fire and paramedics responded. All told, the race was pushed back by an hour.

It was worth the wait, as the dramatic skies added a great dimension to the images.
