Yea, I met the Duc AMA umbrella crew and actually they served us Italian expresso's in the Duc tent at Daytona.  But not a friggen one of 'em I asked about riding could ride a bike.

Truthfully you all for the most part have seen I enjoy hanging with the gals that have their own bikes. Teressa doesn't ride, but any gal that gets up high on the rear of a track bike and lets me go so fast on the back straight of Road Atlanta the front wheel lifts a little and I lose steering....   has my ultimate respect:)

Another night shot.  As the photographer I did a very poor job with this one. But she's pretty and made it what it is, and she likes it so maybe its "semi-worthy" to me.

Steve get her to do a hand shake out before placing her hands and then a shoulder shrug just before you take the picture. If she twisted a little more from the hips and a little less from the shoulder it would help also. Good to see her strong personality showing in her pictures.

I also like the way the riding belt causes her blouse (?) to bunch and gather besides accentuating her waist. Look for the S curve when shooting women as it a very strong visual cue for the observer.

Thanks for that advice!!!  Also I need to work on the lighting, but I'm sure you realized that I uh...realize that :)
