Buffalo Bill Downhill


Last Sunday was Mothers Day and the race day for the Buffalo Bill Downhill Skateboarding event. There was no pretty flowers or sundresses here. Only serious racers in helmets and leathers.



The week leading up to the event was beautiful 70 degree Colorado days. Unfortunately, the day of the race the rain and the fog moved in.



There was and hour delay while riders swapped out for rain wheels or carved grooves into the wheels they brought. The fog provided about 20 feet of visibility at the top and as the day moved on it lifted. The course on the final run actually had lots of dry pavement.




Here's some of the shoots from that day. click any of the photos to see the rest.
