One of very many photos from the Nant G race a couple of weekends back
Photo of the Day on Mar 21, 2011 - more PODs
Selected by Ian Hylands - Pinned, muddy, running a mudflap and a fender, must have just thrown a tear off because his goggles are clean... The action in and environment says everything in this shot, and the photo itself is well timed and well composed. There is no special composition or lighting to it, natural light on a rainy day and basic thirds, but I think it's awesome!

 When all these guys are referring to a picture as 'moto' it's not that the picture looks like a 'moto' picture as such. looking I can see a bit of roost flying through the air, his riding style shown is much like that seen on the mx track. You could say he has a 'moto' style. Also read the first comment. He is pinned Moto stylee! Razz haha
