Right here goes, at the risk of being shot down for spam I'm going to give this a go.......
In an increasingly desperate attempt to escape the rat race of office life I've decided to combine two of my passions and try and turn them into a career. Cycling and Photography.
The concept is Race Photography and Race Culture.....by that I mean capturing the culture and details that makes racing exciting and captures peoples imagination. (Hope that doesn't sound too blst). In a line it is 'For those who dream of finishing solo with their hand in their air'. So that goes from start to finish with everything in between training, race prep, pro racing, amateur racing, food.....you get the drift!
So what am I looking for? I'm doing a series of rider/club profiles to build up the portfolio and book of content and I need models/riders who race, train hard or perhaps have in the past and now prefer just to ride.
Examples of what I've done so far and looking to do so you get the idea:
Cat 2 Racer competing at Nat B Level
Park training session for TCR Rider (Tomorrow)
Long distance endurance racer
Amateur Race Team
I'm keen to add some fixed gear to this agenda. Today's photo was of a fixed gear rider hammering round Regents Park in perfect time trial position. Perhaps he's on here.
I'd also like to feature women who race. I'm looking for the story behind the racing.
Ok so to try to keep it brief......anyone interested? The photo shoot will work like this....you tell me how and when you're training (in London) and I'll try to be there to take snaps. So no stand here look there kind of stuff just train and ignore me taking snaps and perhaps a coffee to debrief and catch up after. No fee and I'll even buy you the coffee! Nothing to lose.
Profiles that spring to mind below but this isn't intended to be any way complete!
