Happy Friday, OBRALand. Weather gods have smiled today. As you prepare for this weekend's action out at Cascade Locks, here is what I shot last weekend. As usual, it's a bit different.

010 Cross Crusade Alpenrose: Outside the Tape

I have been a bit moody in my videos of late so I wanted to something more fun. I tried to capture the vibe away from the race and what goes on outside the course tape. As Alpenrose is a no booze venue (in theory) behavior was festive in a different way. The second I stepped out of the car and started through the parking lot I saw a dude trying to fix a flat with duct tape. He was bummed when he realized his brakes didn’t have the clearance. You never know what you see at a cross race. Or hear. The madcap heckle of Michael Saviers opens and closes the video. I wish that I had more of his philosophy and voice.

I am still trying to learn my cameras - exposure and color is not exactly where I want it to be yet. Also, GoPro’s and Sony’s don’t mix well. BUT, that’s why I’m doing this. To learn.

Please add comments and likes and subscribe. It makes my smile when you do.

Enjoy!! I won't be there this weekend so best of luck to all.
