Photo of the Week by sportyman531

Seen on Carr Street, Ramsbottom in atrocious conditions just before the steepest section on The Rake.
Thank goodness that the camera and lens are weather resistant!

That one captures it all - including the success of the very clear branding (not being a cyclist I haven't a clue whose it is!)

Exactly! It was the first thing that went through my mind, Flan. Great capture and well deserved POTW.
Be well, stay safe, but most of all, invest in memories

Excellent action picture. Good to see women's cycle racing sport getting the publicity it deserves.
