Hello.
Wanted to share some of the shots I took at the 2014 ‘6 Days Bremen’ race in Germany. This was their 50th, and my 1st 6 day race. It was quite an experience, lots of food, beer, music, beer and drunk people, luckily all that was going down in other halls, not the velodrome area. Well actually, there was a lot of music in the velodrome, including live performances on a stage in the inner ring, along with some colourful light shows. There were 12 teams of 2 for the main event, 6 riders for some sprint races, 12 teams of 2 for the UIV Cup (Union International des Velodromes), 12 women riders and 2 teams of 2 for the paracycling race. I put 23 of my favourite shots here, here’s a link to the full album of 60 pictures;
