i took this one today of clydesdale on the strong
while we were riding fixed on one of our favorite
rolling hills loops at noon.
seems like we should have more
posts of riders riding...while it is still legal!

ps. llew is sorry he covered up the strong's drivetrain
...but that may keep you looking for more...

just a hint at how this was taken:
left arm fully extended...with my cell phone held upside down
panning from over the shoulder, forward and clydesdale
came up from behind and dropped me

In keeping with Spidey's fixed gear theme here's one of me on the fixed Potts from PBP '07 and a few shots taken over my shoulder crossing Nevada and Utah enroute from CA to Boston in '06 during the Big Fix.

love the fixed theme and pbp fixed...inspirational!
the shot of the bike downward and the over the shoulder shots
reminded me of a picture i took last week
during my haleakala climb that i couldn't resist taking.
on a six percent grade with these trees climbing into the sky
i reached down with my left hand to my skewer
and took this self portrait...

for me, to have evidence of being the photographer in motion, being integrated in the frame yet not the center of attention
is the greatest challenge -- but really fun photography!

nice rain shot...hopefully you didn't have to wait for your phone
to dry out too long. fortunately, riding with my 3ply waterproof wallet from joe...i can sneak my phone out for occasional pictures
and not damage the phone nearly as often as i used to.
...i must admit to having dropped my blackberry a few times, though.
no wonder my office is cutting off my phone privileges in november!

...and shadow pics are one of my favorite categories of self-portraits...

Shadows...more Big Fix and one from the stoker's seat at the front of Davis Double '09. Plus a shot pushing another tandem into the finish of Furnace Creek 508 later the same year.

Cool thread; shows why cycling can be so much fun. Perspective from bike is so different.

Also made me realize that I haven't taken pictures while riding or had pictures of me riding since a group ride back in 2005 when friends took pictures and video while on an easy ride.

i am impressed with the pics thusfar.
my photography had fallen off the map
until i started blogging last year.
trying to capture the beauty of what i see out there everyday
has been a particular enjoyment
and has me riding with my eyes more open and aware.
the shadows shots make me want to share one of my own from last fall
...anyone have a sunset through the spokes shot??
i'll try to dig up one of mine later on...all i can find right now
is this fixed-through-the-spokes shot

but as the sun set tonight the breeze off the lake
was a welcome relief and i think
made the sunset particularly nice.
(the following is tmi--we have a place called dukes
that serves hamburgers. if you order one that hasn't
been eaten before you can take the challenge
and if you are successful you get to name it...
so, tonight--i had a 6 patty burger.
anyone else who orders one like that
can now do so by ordering
the peloton burger!
i took this on the way home after eating it
with a large side of fries...)

I even have one picture of sunshine from that year. I tended to keep my head down and my camera safe the other 80% of the ride.
