Eugene, OR is a bustling college town of 150,000 and is home to the University of Oregon. Always at the cutting edge of west coast culture, this town would seem ripe to host a large, enthusiatic WNBR. However, despite the fact that Portland and its mammoth ride is only a scant 90 miles away, this town has never really put their WNBR on the map. I've attended 4-5, always in daylight, and always they have been lightly attended. Where are all those college kids? Eugene is also a very bike friendly town. But as many know, the kids don't generally come out unless its dark out. One year, this town did attempt to host a night ride, but it fizzled out and I recall spending a fruitless evening driving around town only to come up empty handed.

OK, so they do ride, but attendance seldom tops 50 participants, and its hit or miss if you are a photographer. So, last Saturday, I arrived with low expectations. At 4PM, the scheduled arrival time, few had showed, and even at 4:20, ten minutes before ride time, only 10-15 were on hand, mostly male and mostly clothed. Oh well, I though - I guess I'll head out. So I started to walk towards my car, but a little voice inside me said "hang around another 5-10 minutes - or at least until the ride departs". And so I did, and thank the lord for that! Five minutes later, three nice young girls arrived and two stripped to nothing. Within 5 more minutes, I had gotten my shots, and the ride was off. Unfortunately though, they rode away from me, not towards me. But thats OK - it wasn't a total loss and I'm glad I made the trip down. Eugene's bike ride may not be in a class with Portland's, but any one can have the potential to be productive.

Below are two pics and I have up to a dozen or so which I will try to post as soon as the London WNBR onslaught has cooled.

I came across a fantastic series of posed shots on flickr. The user has them invisible to search and has his/her stream set to private, but a number of them were posted to the London WNBR group. You just don't see many of these kind of up-close, intimate posed pictures, and to have this many of them in one series is remarkable. There are 28 in all, and will take up 3 posts. Enjoy.

Part 1 of 3.

Something so hot about a sexy lady putting on clothes :D

Also, most of my videos aren't really stable, I was carefully trying not to focus too long on any one subject.. (for obvious reasons - although I will try to be more daring next time. My camera's zoom is very powerful, I could have used it more)
