Visuals

Not feeling too literary this morning, so it's all pretty pictures. In case you can't figure it out, this is the Hartford Crit. I have one little comment though, with a touch of irony: If you're trying to sell me something, don't have a Flash only website. Nothing against all you friendly Flash developers, but just give me the friggin' information, OK? A flash only site is the web equivalent of an obnoxious car salesman in a polka-dotted suit. Thanks for reading, enjoy the images.



The womens' pack in turn four.



The statehouse backdrop on the homestretch.



Aggression at the front.



An out of focus Meg laughing at the poor people. Cruella DeVille sported this same smile when she thought of making dalmation puppies into fur coats.



The Veteran's Memorial Arch.

Here is a short silent movie of an attack near the end that did not get anywhere, but did manage to shed a rider or two who perhaps would have been wiser to let this one go...



What beer is supposed to look like.

  1. Nice photogs. Meg looks good blurry. Also, did you climb a tree for some of the shots, or did you bring your crane?

  2. Keen eye Freddy. I was curious what life was like for you vertically exaggerated people. No tree climbing or crane, just a bench built into the elevated base of the arch. Not sure why the other one looks high. I think it's just a zoom shot from a ways up the hill.

    It's time to start thinking about a trip to the mainland for some racing or riding. Surely a few hours in the car with Al won't kill you. You can always get one of these.
