Great tight shots. Just took some of these myself, but didn't have the lens to do this!

Oh no, Wanda didn't do this race. The riders in this race are some of the best professional riders in the world. After photographing some of the races, I'm just in awe of the stamina and physical condition of these guys have. They average about 30 mph during these races and they can do it day after day, heat or cold, steep hills and level, mile after mile.

Wanda and I are just members of "Team Wannabe".
