Before photography, cycling and racing are my passion...is in the blood.
I would like to thank the fellow NYC racers to continue to purchase my race photos. It has always been an exciting day for me to shoot the bike races. I do wish to continue to cover the NYC local races as much as possible. What's the point of enduring an hour to 2 of suffering in the race without anyone documenting it? Why must your suffering to go unnoticed? I guess this is what is called the romance of cycling and racing. Spending 3 to 5 hours in the saddle suffering in silence. The only redeeming grace is either from your own victory and glory of winning the race. Or just to have made it to the finish line in one piece. Those hours in the saddle you have many things going on in your mind. You begin to ask the big, philosophical questions about life in general. This is what attracted me to cycling and racing in the first place. Suffering, pain, agony, victory, glory, and redemption all played out in a cycling race. Now, I want to document these experiences in the local NYC racing scene. When I was racing back then, no one was documenting my suffering.
