High Cascade 100 (2011)

It was another great year for the High Cascade 100.  This year it was held a bit earlier and the course was different due to the winter storms but when all was said and done everyone had fun.  Thank you to mudslinger events for once again sponsoring us.  This means that the medium resolution images are free for you to download and use.  If you like this, please send Mike a thank you note so he knows that he is getting his money's worth.

Sisters Stampede (2011)

Second year and another great event by the folks of Sisters Stampede.  The weather threatened to bring cold wet weather but it actually made a less dusty, cooler temperature race. 

We would like to thank Joel and the Sisters Stampede for supporting us.  Enjoy the free digital images due to their generousity.

2010 High Cascade 100 

What to say about the High Cascade 100?  Not really sure.  Still cooked from walking an est. 22 miles.  It was too early to think straight and I left me "running" shoes on instead on putting on my hiking boots.  Now my feet are in revolt.  It wasn't enough to be eaten by the mosquito, attacked by some ants for standing in the wrong place but the a grouse decided it didn't like us too. 

"As a bird to be hunted and eaten, the blue grouse is very tasty, having a wild flavor and yet tender and dry, not greasy like ducks and other water fowl. Of course, before you will ever get the chance to find out just how good eating these birds are, you will have to find one or more and bag them and knowing just where to look is a good place to start." - John Traveler

Well the joke is on that grouse.  Sept. 1st is opening season on grouse and I know where to look for one. 

Oh, what?  This isn't a hiking blog or a hunting blog?  Sorry about that.  Still a bit delirious from the 25 work day on Saturday.

You couldn't tell that this was the second year of the the High Cascade 100.  Mudslinger Events puts on excellent events and this is no different.  We talked with lots of racers from all over this weekend and they were happy with the quality of the event and the caliber of racers. 

Now down to business. Here are:

Somedays you just aren't meant to race.

 Another great day of short track racing.  I wsa a bit tired from shooting the Cream Puff the day before so the photos don't vary as much as they usually do.  I think you will be happy with the results though; some racing portraits.

The Inaugural Sisters Stampede

Sisters Stampede inaugural race was what most races should strive to be.  First and foremost, a great course!  Add great course markings, volunteers and with a little help of Mother Nature, perfect weather, and you have the makings for a great race.  Then toss in a kiddie race, a band, excited locals, a commentator, awards, slide show of photos from that day, food, drink, a beautiful venue and you have the makings for a great event.   Joel, Winter and their crew put on an A class event that is sure to become a Classic.  With events like this from the current batch of new promoters and old promoters, with race attendance up, I would say mountain biking has a bright future here in Oregon.

We would like to thank InFocus Eye Care for sponsoring us at the race.  Because of their generosity all medium resolution images are free to have and use for non-commercial purposes.  Spread images of your good time with the world.
