There were some buildings in the area at the time but most of the area was waiting to be developed. It was a 1.5 mile circuit with an 80 foot elevation change per lap and four corners. Race headquarters was set up in the parking lot of one of the developed areas. I met another photographer there by the name of Michell Clinton. He was fun to watch working his trade. I picked up a few pointers and have since seen him at the Home Depot Velodrome in Carson. he travels throughout the USA photographing bike races. He has been involved with cycling industry for 35 years and photographing it for 22 years.</p> <p class="bodytext">The race was held on Saturday and the Garrett Lemire was on Sunday. These races were between the Redlands race and Sea Otter in Monterey Area. Video made of pictures follows.</p> <script type="text/javascript"> AC_FL_RunContent( 'codebase','http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0','width','324','height','240','id','FLVPlayer','src','FLVPlayer_Progressive','flashvars','&MM_ComponentVersion=1&skinName=Clear_Skin_1&streamName=video/countyclassic&autoPlay=false&autoRewind=false','quality','high','scale','noscale','name','FLVPlayer','salign','lt','pluginspage','http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash','movie','FLVPlayer_Progressive' ); //end AC code </script><noscript><object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0" width="324" height="240" id="FLVPlayer"> <param name="movie" value="FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf" /> <param name="salign" value="lt" /> <param name="quality" value="high" /> <param name="scale" value="noscale" /> <param name="FlashVars" value="&MM_ComponentVersion=1&skinName=Clear_Skin_1&streamName=video/countyclassic&autoPlay=false&autoRewind=false" /> <embed src="FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf" flashvars="&MM_ComponentVersion=1&skinName=Clear_Skin_1&streamName=video/countyclassic&autoPlay=false&autoRewind=false" quality="high" scale="noscale" width="324" height="240" name="FLVPlayer" salign="LT" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" /> </object></noscript> <p class="bodytext"> </p> <p class="bodytext"> </p> <p class="bodyText"><span class="subHeader">Photography</span></p> <p class="bodyText"><span class="bodytext">I got some photos of the Lipton Women's Team.
