Bike Ballet

I like the movement in this, its kind of like the stages of this turn. Color is so so I think. Im still learning this camera, its a Canon 30D, I have had it about 3 weeks

I like that.

A chicane looks good too.
If you get the snake of bikes leaning both ways it's really spectacular.

Thank you so much! I have some of those shots from last year and you are right, I will have new ones like that in April!

Great shot Lori, is that from the AMA SBK test last week? I LOVE shooting at Barber; what a beautiful facility.

BTW, you're just about a neighbor! I'm in Hoover right near the Galleria and I'm a huge bike fan myself. Unfortunately I'm going to have to miss the Superbikes this year as my final exams start the week afterwards.

You bet it was and yes Barber is amazing! I lived in Hoover and couldnt handle the traffic anymore LOL Good luck on your exams! You know the event is Friday thru Sun right?

Good catch.

Haha, indeed, I'm right by the Galleria and the traffic in the evenings can be a real pain. Believe me, I want to go to the race so bad (I haven't missed an AMA race there since Barber opened), but my exams start that Thursday, so there's just no way I can justify it. Law school does it so stupidly - we have no grades but the final, so I have to know the whole semester's worth of material for all 5 classes .

Besides, I don't have a zoom lens yet, so I'd just be frustrated I couldn't get good action photos. Get some good ones to share with us, that's as close as I'll get this year.

Consider it done Brad! I will be working the back straight Good luck on your exams too!

Thank you very much!

The back straight's the place to be - enjoy the race!
