2016 PBC - Getting Ready

This is about 9:30 am or about 50 minutes before sunrise. This was taken at the west end of the parking lot at the Butrovich Bldg. I took the opportunity to record some video for the 2016 Polar Bear Challenge which begins tomorrow. I just re-read the rules and it said that the video doesn't actually need to be recorded on the day that it's submitted so I figured that I'll begin a day early.

I know that I had said that I wasn't planning to participate but it's hard for me to turn my back to something like this. Easy to do, uses a bit of technology, and annoys a couple of the other participants. What's not to like about this? I rode about 26 km this morning and ended up with a boring 3 minute video that meets their requirements.

  1. Glad you're entering the PBC, as to the annoyed, they can go get a rig of their own....

    Nice golden tones in the sunrise....

    1. I really like the silhouette of the Alaska Range in the sunrise colors. I guess I maybe should have used a telephoto (assuming I had one handy).

  2. Time is moving too fast if it is already PBC time again. Something tells me you are more than ready for the challenge.
