Oh my goodness batman. That looks incredible. Thanks for taking such awesome pictures.
Kudos to everyone who participated!
That was awesome, and I was just standing there staying dry with a megaphone yelling at people. Way to do it better. Next year we need a snow machine right after the foam pit!
What an excellent event. Definitely the most fun I’ve had a race this year… maybe it was the free beer? Maybe the foam? Perhaps the situp contest? This is one of my favorite photos of the day… http://www.flickr.com/photos/ironcladcycling/3022644606/in/set-72157608801322373/
That looks like a ghillie suit, not a monster.
Bonus points for racing in the full thing including face mask! 🙂
Now, if he was to go out into the field and lay down, no one would be able to find him.
🙂 Yes. I am a geek. I read tooooo much.
That is a Gilly (or Ghillie) Suit. Must have been fun to ride in. Nothing like a sniper on a Single Speed bike. As if single speeders weren’t already messed up in the head.
