Pearce Cycles round 1

Three and half hours drive...rain and mud....but brilliant race at Hopton!

After long drive I arrived at Hopton. And first thing I noticed was few rain drops on car window...then heaven open and it rain for one hour.Ten minutes before race its stop raining so I rush to find good spot. After climbing steep section I found jump which look very promising. After 15th rider when past me its start raining again. So track became slippy and mud was flying everywhere. Light was always changing so it was hard to get right exposure. Just before I left sun came out so I managed to get some good shots.

As it was my first time at Hopton I have to say...I will come back for sure!! Very well organized race.
