 I drove sag support for a Superbowl Sunday ride to downtown Dallas where we met with cyclists from all over the DFW area for lunch and then rode back. I took the opportunity to also photograph the ride. Much of the pics were just good snapshots, with too much visual clutter for the DPC crowd, but the folks in the club appreciated them a lot.

By far one of my favorites from the challenge. Definitely resonates with cyclists - what a great shot! And perfectly titled.

Engaging image. The lines in the helmet repeat on the cyclers face.
