Fuji-X Sport: Pro Cycling

[GilBarib]

Hi

A few pics from a pro-cycling competition in Quebec City,  it was a criterium, a 70 km race on a 2 km urban track for a total of 35 laps, these type of races are great since you get lots of opportunities for some good shots. 

It was the fifth stage of the Tour de Beauce, here is what Wikipedia says about the event: "Tour de Beauce is a men's elite professional road bicycle race multi-day event held each June in the Beauce region of Québec, Canada since 1986. Tour de Beauce is a Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI)-rated 2.2 continental circuit stage race on the UCI America Tour."

 

Shot with a X-T1 + XF50-140 + XF1.4TC, most of the time @196mm f4

AFC with Zone tracking (3x3 grid, central points), drive on CH (8 fps)
Raw, PP in LR 6.6 and the Nik Collection....
