As is the case with any photo shoot, not everything makes the cut. That doesn’t necessarily mean the photos that got cut aren’t good, but for whatever reason they don’t make it all the way through to print. This winter has been a great one for the riders here in Orlando because it’s been, well, hot. Wetsuit wearing has been to a minimum, which means lots of guys are riding. Here are some extra photos from shoots I’ve been on the last few months, just in case you’re still stuck in snowdrifts somewhere maybe this will scratch the itch you’ve got for some sunshine, warm water, and wake action.
