Clay Webb and Andy Achuff - perfectly matched sprinters. |
Action from the second round of the Hotel Grand Pacific Harbour Sprints Series was captured yet again by photographer
Jon Lake this past Friday, June 3, 2011.
Huge thanks to Mr. Smith and The Shrew for keeping racers and spectators alike entertained with thumping bass beats (and the occasional dubstep track), and to
Ken Gordon, MC, for his humourous and crowd-pleasing commentary.

Mr. Smith and The Shrew were the men with the master-plan

Judging by the 37" long legs, I'm gonna say this is Jenny.
Since I can't see who it is on the other side of her, let's go with... Derek Brain? |
