There are some great shots posted by Ed and Kwun from the race.

I ended up didn't take as many shots as last year but here are a few.

I sat on the side of the road and literally on my back shooting into the sun.

1. The second chase group

#5 is awesome.

Haha... double decker...:) or just park a pickup truck and put a ladder on the bed :D

Next your, I may park my truck at similar place and bike up a little further; or will go with your plan and stay around the turn on Marbury road. :)

Bobby, I have a portrait shot of it too but I think because the DOF was too thin, it doesn't look as good.

Also, here's a cool story regarding the mismatch wheels in this pic
