There was an amazing turnout, certainly the best in the past 3 years. Because of the staggering starts and a large part of the course was cut out ST Paul's, plus many riders seem to like to join later into the start and then peel off before the end, so that the main bulk of photographers can't/won't snap them. Many familiar faces were there, certainly many of the ladies who have been people's fav over the past 2 years. There were some absolutely stunning ladies this year and they seem to be less shy, or perhaps it was the weather that made them bare more for longer. I think Brighton will be amazing, I may try to get down there. I think I photographed from approx 7 different locations across the main route, I avoided the start and Finnish. I have a mountain of images, so I'll post a selection of my fav ladies and I'll try to post pics of people's favs. You'll have to be a little patient as Im inundated with work so I'll try to sort through them as and when I can so please be patient. There was a lack of bush but there was some so fear not! I was really impressed by the ladies that dared to bear, not only was the turnout massive but so was the photography presence. I may not shoot another Year as I believe there are plenty enough cameras/eyes on it. The ladies seem to handle it so well considering some people really are getting intrusive and no doubt except that by participating in this event, they will be snapped by so many. I like to ask permission when I'm close enough to, and I was suprised and felt bad that some of the ladies said no thanks. Obviously I'm not sure what one less camera would do but I got these message that for many it might be nicer if there wasn't quite so much intense camera presence, but hey, this event is getting larger because of it. I'm pretty sure that many of the ladies observe sites like this and keep track of comments and images. As long as we acknowledge thieir bravery and beauty, hopefully they'll long continue. Anyway, I have some sleep to catch up on!

Thanks for all the photos, those of you who are contributing.

But I have to admit, I am distressed and disappointed at the utter lack of pubic hair thus far. Usually all of these rides have a handful of women who keep their bush intact but almost every photo this year shows no hair whatsoever. :( I know some folks prefer their women that way, but it sure was nice to count on the variety amongst riders. Oh well...fingers crossed for those yet to come.

And thanks again for all the pics, fellas.
