This photo of the pro women race was taken on the corner of Bullard with a worms eye view.
The Tour of the Gila is one of the most challenging and iconic stage races in the U.S.
The 29th annual Tour of the Gila 2015 has been confirmed by the international cycling governing body as a 2.2 category race for Professional Men Women and has excellent placement on the calendar a week prior to the Amgen Tour of California, giving professional racers a chance to compete in one of the most challenging races in North America. ’Gila’ has the feel of European racing with the winding, narrow mountain roads in the Gila National Forest and the grass-roots appeal of the historic town of Silver City, New Mexico. The ever-growing popularity of cycling is a big part of the appeal of Southwest New Mexico year round.

Thank you very much for your comment on the framing, it makes the whole composition come together. It was sure thrilling to only be 12 inches away from the bikes going by and being on the ground made that even more thrilling etc.....

Such a great shot that took split second timing. It is really fun to see the racers from a 'worm's eye view'! Totally different perspective.

It has been three years of trying to get a sports photo of this race and it all came together this year. Most of what made this all possible was the blazing 11 frames per second this Sony A6000 camera produces.
