CO Hill Climb

[sweetgrass]

These are several from the archives. Rode from PHX to CO Springs in 2006, and attended a hill climb event. Shot with my old D100 and my manual Nikor 180mm F2.8.

BTW #77 was my good friend's nephew, and he led the ride. So I needed show some love.

Great action shots. I rode District 37 desert racing in Southern California back in the 1969 1074 time period.

No way? Dude, guys like you are my heros! This was like 15 years ago, but I rode with a guy that was 84, and he told me about him and his buddies riding the desert around PHX on Triumphs, BSA's and Nortons that they had converted to dirt. You guys have my upmost respect!

Thanks, I rode a Matchless then a couple different Husky's a Yamaha and Hodaka. I finished the 1971 Barstow to Vegas. I just turned 80 so I don't do that anymore

These are some awesome action sport shots Sonny! It's always amazing when a still photograph can portray motion. I think #1 and 4 are my favorites followed by #2 and 3. But all of these are winning photos!

This sport isn't my cup of tea, but these are good shots. Good to see another contributor in this forum.
