Those pics are even better than the previous ones. Just great shots of some amazing stunts. I like the subtleties of the colors in the sky. Not washed at all...perfect exposures.

KJacques... thanks for the kind words on my shots. The weather today was perfect as it was in the high 60's with nice sun. Yesterday it was overcast. Mercifully no crashes. I spoke with both bikers after the show and both have had multiple broken bones. They are only in their early 20's. Cheers, Bill P.

If only bravado could accomplish feats like that.

More, it's a zen-like focus through extreme high stress mixed with a lot of training and more than a healthy dollop of old fashioned skill, talent and confidence.

Being a 20 year old rubber person with an invulnerability complex helps too.
