BMX in Mexico - Photography

Over the weekend I went down to photograph a BMX contest in Obregon Mexico. They run the contest once per year and draw pretty sizable crowds. This was the first time I've been beyond the border towns and I had an absolutely great time. The people in Mexico were great to spend time with. Looks like I'll also be heading down again in November to cover the Baja 1000.

One of the interesting things about Mexico is there's a fairly large population of flatland riders. This was great to see, but it gave me the urge to actually pick up a bike again. Not good...
