Boise Twilight Criterium
Saturday, July 18th was a very busy day. I attended and photographed the Capital City Public Market in the morning, drove to Idaho City for a photo crawl in the afternoon and returned to Boise in time to photograph the final race of the 2009 Boise Twilight Criterium. I managed to capture some interesting images that day, but this one in particular stands out. It is called Flying Colors, I think you will see why! This officer is clearing the path for the 100 or so bicycle riders who are participating in this race. A Criterium is a bicycle race, held on a closed course -- usually less than 6 km. The weather was hot, 105 degrees and I didn't realize how dehydrated I had become until I ate dinner with a number of my fellow photographers at Trudy's in Idaho City. I must have consumed a dozen glasses of water at the meal even though I carried and drank water through out the day.
