I never intended to steal anyone's pictures. I sent out some e-mail's
about using someone's from oregonvelo.com, or the couple of other
photographers that post links on the OBRA list. I waited a day.
NOBODY responded. Then I tried looking around on flickr and other
sites.

I intend to give the photographers interested full credit, endless
plugs, and buy them a beer whenever the situation arises. If anyone
is interested in donating a snapshot or two under these conditions,
get in touch. I don't need pro pictures, just a couple snaps of guys
who were involved in the outcome of the race.

On another note, one of the photographers I bothered referred to me as
a "journalist". I take great offense to this label. My little blog
is based on hearsay, rumors, gossip, and completely biased personal
opinion. These may revolve around race results, but those aren't
really news, they're just a record of the event ("50 Cat 1-2 cyclists
rode around in circles north of Corvallis and Chad Hartley rode
fastest" is about as deep as my "reporting" is going to go.). I think
the term "gossip-monger" would be more appropriate.

Anyways,
the site is at raceOregon.blogspot.com
it still needs pictures.
sorry to some of you and thank you to others.
