They are keepers. The weed in the FG of number 3 bugs me. I think I could live with it if it was only about as tall as his tire. Insane DH riding. I'll stick to the road.

1st one in the second set. Love it. First thing i saw was that the "g-force" (?) has made his rear tire appear flat. Shows me that the action in the bike was awesome. Keep up the good work! If your ever in Michigan in November we'll go shoot the Iceman. Ok so off to your Flickr now!

great snaps with that little guy (the lens, of course). Is that all Diablo?

Hey dtufino, good shots. I don't like the 50mm for DH. It's a great lense but not ideal for DH, but you make it work. Keep posting.

thanks.... i like shooting with the 50mm when i'm riding... i can carry the camera and the 500 in my Backpack... with other lenses it's a bit of a hassle trying to ride and lug at the same time.. :-(
