Thanks Pappy. Helps get my mind off the cold weather. Incredible sharpness and clarity in your pics (I can even see the a little plastic tag connector hanging off Bill Ballance's right glove in the last pic). Any word on what Chris Borich will be riding in 2008?

Posted by: Pappy

From what I hear through the rumor mill he will be on a LTR, but nothing has been official released from the Borich camp.

sweet photos, this is going to be my first GNCC i race with the Florida Trail Riders down here in florida obviously lol. im so excited for it. i can only do the one in florida this year but next year i will hopefully have a truck by then, and im going to try to do the whole thing, ill have lots of make-up work at school but it will be worth it for sure. i will be in melbourne early sat morning i have a '05 pred 500 my number uasally is eight but it probably wont be that for the GNCC we will be in a black chevy silverado. if you see me out there say hey.

cya out there,

Thank you for the compliments. Rounds 1 & 2 are over and that sure was a long trip. I left home heading to Florida with the flu and had a terrible time taking good shots. Georgia I was feeling better but the weather made it incredibly tough to pull of what I like to capture.

I really dig getting into a riders face so i can see the expressions and intensity. I will hopefully be doing all types of work this year and i will keep this thread alive with some shots.
