Cordwalles Mudman 2011

So when people thought the last event was big...guess again!  With over 1400 entries on the day, the Cordwalles Mudman is claiming to be the biggest multisport event in KZN.  Racing as usual was fierce and fast, with Tyrone White taking another win to strengthen his hold on the series.  Check out some of the images below...

Playing in the mist...

Went to go check out the new World Cup DH course the other day... it's looking good!  The weather made for some interesting (And difficult!) shooting, but was definitely worth it!...  Just posting my 2 favourites from the short time playing with the big lens in the mist.
