VeloNews Photo Contest: Last week's winner and a new gallery

Published: Oct. 24, 2005
Photo: Becky Brandt

Our latest reader-submitted Photo Gallery is now up for your viewing pleasure.

Of course, a new gallery also means the naming of the winner of ourmost recent contest. Becky Brandt’s “Uh-oh this is gonna hurt” received the same initial reaction from nearly everyone we showed it to: “OUCH!!!” Even though the equipment – and probably the photo itself – are decidedly old school, the shot captures the precise moment that poor rider’s day went to the dogs. (We hope he did better than we suspect that he did.)Congratulations, Becky! Contact us and you win a copy of Graham Watson's "Landscapes of Cycling." (We'd be grateful, though, if you told us the rest of the story when you write in to claim your prize.)Go ahead and take a look at our latest gallery,decide what you like and let us know what you think by dropping a noteto Rosters@InsideInc.com.
