Bummer!

This weekend's Squiggy TT has been cancelled because of rain.  It will be nice & sunny tomorrow, but it has rained heavily over the past two days.  We live within minutes of Flatwoods Park, where Squiggy is held.  We have had 5.2" of rain in the past two days.  That is on top of the ground that is already drenched from this winters crazy pattern of rain.  But we suspected that the bridge over Clay Gully was underwater.

I am so disappointed!  I love photographing time trials!!  What I love even more is that I can focus on each cyclist & get their bib number.  Last years photos were then divided into galleries for each rider.  It took me forever, but it was worth it!  I think because of that ease of finding themselves was one of the reasons that last years Squiggy was one of the best selling events I did in 2009!

I guess I will just have to find another TT to shoot!  I am not driving to Fort Lauderdale this year.  Worse case scenario, there is always the Orlando TT Series!

Although my heart is in road bikes, I photograph Adventure Races also.  I photographed my first adventure race last year at Squiggy, as I was the official photographer for the whole event.  That introduced me to WeCeFAR.  I was asked to come back to two of their races since then, plus Squiggy this year, again.  So, their race is questionable too.  They are on Sunday, so with a day of sunshine, conditions might be better by then.  A decision will be made tomorrow morning.  Although, I am not sure about tromping in the woods after all this rain!

So, my weekend may be completely freed up!  What am I to do?  I'll probably follow my husband & son out to their ride & take picture of them on their bikes!
