TOC, sierra road..........
....wet and wild!
the rain cleared after i parked my truck near the bottom of the climb and didn't start again until about 45 minutes before the riders reached us. this year the riders were more tightly grouped and they all passed us in a few minutes (last year took about 30 minutes).
i'll post pictures as they rolled by me.........

Awesome photos as usual. Sorry if you've already answered this, but what kind of lens setup and settings are you using?
