Hi all,

Gotta say this is one of my fav photos of recent, it's the unusual angle/attitude the bike is taking on that makes it for me. The guys were kicking the back end round on the decent due to lack of room at the bottom.....not to mention it speeds things up given the 60s time constraint per section.

Will have to rewind the tape and have a look but I think Pep Segales was standing around there at the time so probably his shot. Kudos to whoever took it anyway.

Ian.
