The Dilworth Criterium by peggysirk

The Dilworth Criterium

Every April the Dilworth Criterium (short course bicycle race) is held in the neighborhood ~ lapping the park. Amateur and professional racers from across the country participate in the event. Tom and I walked down this morning to check out some of the action. The 45+ amateur racers were just finishing up...these two had just crossed the finish line. Looks like none too soon for the rider on the left. :)
Nice shot and nice DOF on this one. Surprised the crowds allowed you to get the shot.

Lovely shot - great colors - love the checkered flags flying! Amazing how those skinny little tires can hold up these grown (groaning) men!

He looks like he's glad to see the finishing line. The one on the right, on the other hand, looks to be smiling in quite a relaxed fashion. Nice capture, Peggy.

Hahaa - at least he's got the gear. You're in great spot there - very brave in fact! Love the dappled light.

How long is the race ? I guess a bit more than a walk in the park :-0
