The images from last weekends St. Chuck's Challenge (Missouri's first MTB Stage Race) are up and available on my web site:
Day One (http://www.actionimages.cc/viewGallery?gid=MTB-SCC)
Day Two (http://www.actionimages.cc/viewGallery?gid=MTB-SCS)
I typically shoot road racing so I would appreciate any feedback.
Thanks,
Kurt

Great shots. Only recommendation (coming from mtb photographer recently migrating to photographing road racing) is to find a section of trail with a bit more action. The sections you were on were smooth, flat, and easy. Makes for much better photos if the terrain is difficult.

Thanks for the suggestions guys!! I will attempt to plan my shooting sites with course difficulty in mind. It was a bit of a hike to get back into the woods on this course and with them only doing 4 laps of a seven mile loop, I was making sure to maximize my opportunities each time they went by, but a more difficult section of the course is definitely in order.
Thanks again,
Kurt
