During my Holiday break I had compiled some of my favorite photos of 2 wheel racing from 2010. It was great to look back through the year, which for me was a great despite the roller coaster ride. There were lots of great events attended and some great moments in racing to capture. Here's part one of my favorite photos from last year.
Hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed creating them.

When I try to explain Valentino Rossi to people who don't follow motorcycle racing, I say, think Elvis or the Beatles meets sports athlete. People go nuts over that guy. Now when you add to that, the Italian guy takes his first ride on an Italian GP bike.... absolute madness. The air was electric with anticipation, in the stands and on pit lane. There were moments that I wondered if that fever pitch would result in someone running you over just to get a shot of Rossi.
Then, the madness sorted of turned into a bit of boredom with the two and half hour weather delay. Any rider who stepped out of the garage was subjected to some of that feeding frenzy, because it was like oh thank god, something to photograph. The lull in the storm ended when the man in black and florescent yellow finally rolled out on the black Duc. I don't think i'll ever see so much excitement for just a few laps. That is unless Rossi makes some other monumental race team change. I'm thinking it'd have to be something along the lines of F1 Ferrari to duplicate or top that.
I may be jaded in my somewhat young age, but even I had to admit, it was a day I will remember. Here are my favorites from that day...
