MTB - Look away if you dont like bikes...

Seems like a few members are into Mountain Biking, so I've posted a load of shots from the forest just round the corner from me, (sorry if it's too many)


Some photoshop tomfoolery to begin with;

I like the snowy bike, is it going home without you?


Great shots, things do look like they could get a bit "slippy"


Steve

Cheers Steve


I just couldnt pedal any further so got off, but the bike stayed upright, so i had to take a shot, I actually learnt a lot about WB and the need to over expose in the snow, the shots were dreadful, took a bit of post processing to get them as good as they are, (which isnt very good)....live and learn.


As for the Slippy sign, shame people cant take responsibility for their own actions any more, at least we have no win no fee lawyers........

Nice set! Did you get someone else to take the pics of you, or did you use a timer or remote release?


Makes me anxious to get home and on my bike again!


Stephen

The last one of me was an event photographer, but the others I set up and got one of my mates to hold the shutter down


I know what you mean, the spring has sprung and i need to shake off the winter calories, I went out today and was puffing a bit too much.

Great shots Ade!


I especially love the one of the bike on the trail in the snow.


I guess it

Hey Rich, i do a lot of night riding, and with the right lights it

My last bike was a Giant Athem II blue and silver. Best bike I

Nice mtb pix Ade....looks like you have some pretty nice dirt to ride.


Since moving back to Massachusetts from Atlanta my mtb has sat unused [:(]....it was my roadie that suffered in ATL. We'd ride after work (into the dark) and then do wkend trips to northern GA and NC....ahh, Tsali.


Thanks for reminding me....road riding is fun, but mtbing makes a kid of you again.

I was in france last year and caught a stage of the Tour, the thrill, the excitement, the crowd......nothing can beat it, you dont get this kind of raw energy MTBing, seriously, check out the energy of these girls just as Lance went by in his lycra.....[:P]
