Another group comes up over the crest! Notice the sharp colors overall, this photo turned out well, riders up out of their saddles on the climb just cresting the vista. It's not really a hard climb, or very long either, but it's both the hardest and longest climb in the race, and the vista would of offered good composition under sunny skies. However with such windy and cold condtions, I completely gave up on composition shots, as the farm in the background would of made a stunning backdrop.
