    FIRST BIKING PHOTO COVER

    I scored my first cover with a biking photo. Rider is shortyadam, on the crest. they turned the photo the wrong way, but it still looks cool. My thanks to Adam, We were on a big group ride and everyone wanted to get going. I asked him if he would do the spine a few times along with phatfreehealer. The light was off the hook that night. They did it and two years later, what do ya know a cover.

    sweet shot, the light was indeed off the hook.

    Those things always seem to come together when everyone else is in a hurry, way to stay after it.

    Did they do a mirror image on the shot? They always like to have subjects facing towards the pages as opposed to the binding.

    nice work indeed!!!!
