On my way back from the corner store, I was stopped at this street and pleasantly surprised. Some road that crosses Piedmont Ave. Figured I'd share, enjoy.

BTW, these were all taken with my phone. It was all on the fly, so I didn't get a chance to adjust any settings.(Video included)

Who's that?

There was a smaller pack that was further ahead, but they were passing just as I was whipping my camera out so I couldn't get any pics of them.

Who's that?

He is a member on here. Runs in most of the cycling events in the state and a lot nationally. He won a major event late last year. A photoshopped pic of him by me is below. Later, QD.
