WOW I don't know if its the perspective or the colour but this photo is awesome, has a little bit of a vintage or film look to it. And it's nice to see a POD that isnt composed with a flash. Great work! Added to Favorites
^@ihateBC@^ how do you hate BC. There probably wouldn't be a pinkbike if it wasn't for BC, and also there probably wouldn't be mountain biking (especially DH). So pretty much your dissing like the george washington of biking, except for its canadian not american. or is that just a name and you actually like BC?
@neallynberg Mountain biking was invented in the USA in Marin on Mount Tamalpais by some guys who started bombing down fireroads on cruisers and it grew from there. BC definitely pushed the sport and made freeriding and dh grow, but mountain biking would probably still exist, just not at the extreme level it is today.
@airbornemtnbiker there were people mountain biking in other countries long before anyone rode down Mt Tam on a cruiser... There were guys riding off road on bikes with gears and knobby tires and flat bars as early as the 40's I believe. In fact I watched an old video of it that Gary Fisher posted a link to not so long ago. Sorry to ruin the American dream of inventing the Mountain Bike....
I'm not sure where I got the 1940's thing from, I know I read it somewhere. Here is the video I was talking about, title says 1950 but a few of the comments in the youtube version seem to point to it being around 1959 or 1960. Still pretty early for mountain biking...
POD is for picture of the day, not big trick off a huge huck of the day. And take a quick look through some of headley125's albums and I think you might drop the arrogant comment about luck with the lighting...
I like it. All the shots shouldn't be professional camera shots. This person had a half decent camera and used his creativity to take a cool shot. Nice POD.
This guy clearly has the creativity but to say a Canon EOS 5D Mark II is a half decent camera??? Are you kidding? or maybe you really dont know what your talking about. Stick to biking dude.
POD keeps getting worst and worst... its a picture of him riding .. with a lucky shot of the light.. no skills,,, no tricks.. no tough obstacles.. undeserved.
