Determination

I worked a cyclocross race in Southern Massachusetts today.
I got some great shots.
Not only was this young man racing (and beating) men who are older than him, (that's his older brother chasing him) he has cystic fibrosis. He also suffered a horrific accident at a bike race a year ago - he was struck by a van and got pinned underneath it. He was in the hospital for several weeks.
Needless to say, he has many fans who root for him at every race, and are delighted to see him doing so well.

Here are some more shots from today if you are interested in bike racing:
Whoops!
Ride it!
