Frozen Hog Mountain Biking

Clear as a bell. Eighteen degrees. Perfect riding weather, no? The folks at the tenth annual Frozen Hog Mountain Biking Race in Alpine, Utah, were loving it. Great light and fun action abound at this assignment. Something about this event reminded me of the many mornings I woke up early during my senior year at Western Washington University to string for The Bellingham Herald... Got me missing some of my buddies and shooters back home.  Enjoy!
