Ride Report Southridge RR 1/12 - 1/3

We're not in Fontucky anymore, Dorothy...

Man. Today was ROUGH. I have a few DH shots from after my run, and RR coming tomorrow.

It was great to meet some new people and hang out with others! Thanks to all that came out and took photos and cheered!!

We will see you guys in 2 weeks!
 
I know Bluefirepictures , Lensart and Downhillnews were there. I think Ericfoltz, also. New camera and computer taking me a bit here with mine. Takes forever getting them into photobucket.


Sharky - drop me an email - I have a MUCH better solution for you than Photobucket.

I got 12th out of 20(i think there were 20??) in beginners 13-15 time was 3:48:41 :) The wind today was really strong I was getting pushed around just standing around waiting to go
 
I was there. I was up on the saddle all day getting sandblasted. http://www.jodygomez.com/g/2008_mtb_racing

I'm uploading and editing right now, but my eyes are killing me, so I'll edit for as long as I can see.

Let me know what you think!

PhotoMom, you're a STUDette!!

Same goes out to Sharky, Eric, Andy (Bluefire) and all the others that stayed out there, in that crazy wind to get pictures!

I stood up towards the top of the course, and watched guy's get bown down hard there, and saw you sitting down there getting the shots!

That was nut's!

Thanks for your dedication!

I took a ton of pics but I depleted my battery so when it charges up I'll upload. Can someone recommend the best way to upload a lot of pictures so that everyone can see them? When I say I a lot I mean over 300. Ok thanx

What I did was take a lot of r/c pics.. and then my buddy offered me free webspace to upload... so I did. And now I upload my bike photos there. :D Thanks Jeff :wave:
 
I used to use photobucket but unless you compress the pics before uploading, it takes forever to load on STR threads. Food for thought with multiple people uploading pics.

You can upload all your pics to your STR gallery and link them in your post. They'll load faster.

I took a bunch of pics. I'll go through the post with everyones number and try to post what I have.

Try 1100 - and that's after I deleted the crap! If you're using a cf card, then get a card reader and download the files with that rather than the camera. Much better and faster!

Here are a couple pictures that I shot.

Andy and his dog, RacinJason, and the Incycle crew.

I'm not having a problem downloading the pictures from my camera to my computer. I want to upload them in mass quantities onto some type of photobucket or other type of photo sharing site. I think I might just upload them on to my myspace and link that through my profile. Then people can just scroll through and take what they like. Any other suggestions?

Make a Flickr account its quick, easy and FREE. You can upload all your photos to there and the best thing is everyone can see them. A lot of people have problem viewing photobucket accounts and Kodak accounts they always want you to sign up for your own account. Try Flickr.
 
Ok thanx I'll try that Jordan. I'm tired, theres sand in my ears and eyes, and I'm about to watch family guy so if you guys want to snag some pics from CC's fully loop ride on my myspace go ahead and see whats up. I dont delete or rotate anything. I just shoot, download, then upload onto the site. I leave all that stuff up to the people that want the pics. I'll try to upload todays southridge pics onto flickr later on. :wave:
 
I think I got good shots of everyone except LocnRoc 12-I . I got blown over as he passed so hope someone got one.I'll talk to photomom tomorrow to figure a better way so sorry for the delay.
The race started at noon rather than 10:30 because a girl broke her leg in practice and I know 3 other guys got knocked out after being blown over in the race. The photographer from Bluefire got to one guy who kept asking the same questions/thought it was Saturday etc.
today was a tough one for sure. I admire all of you out there. Great racing in extreme conditions for spectators too YIKES!!
The Incycle guys above are Gilbert "Gil-caz", Frank "DHshuttlemonkey" and not sure of the last?
 
Unfortunately, I won't be there. I'm shooting Tiger Woods and the gang at the Buick Invitational at Torrey Pines Golf Course all weekend. Hopefully the weather is good!

Jody

Pfft..Tiger Woods...

:lol:
