I was on the way to the Tuesday Farmers’ Market on State street when I saw these guys riding up towards me. Due to my ridiculous zeal of being the Way of the Bicycle photographer, I tried to flag them down, half expecting them to stop. But alas, it was not to be. They were on a mission. They were kitted out in lycra and mounted on carbon steeds in a manner that said “we’re not stopping for the likes of you.” And that’s cool. What rider in their right mind is going to stop for some random dude with a camera? In any case, I thought the picture came out pretty well.
*Any riders whose name I don’t get are automatically called Fred (or Frieda if they are female). That is all.
Hi there everybody, here every one is sharing these kinds of familiarity,
therefore it’s good to read this blog, and I used to pay a quick visit this
website all the time.

Sadly, Carlos Soto just passed away… “Trek Fred” :-/
I know Foreground Fred ;-)
Yes, that’s an excellent action photo. I like the way how you turned “Fred” on its head.
