Self-promotion: “CCC ’09”

Dec 21
2009

A quick moment of self-promotion: I’m spending the off-season collaborating with two other photographers to create a photo book celebrating the 2009 Chicago Cyclocross Cup season. We still have a lot of work ahead of us, but so far it’s looking very, very neat.

We will be publishing through a print-on-demand service, but if you are willing to pick up your copy from The Pony Shop in Evanston, you can pre-order now and avoid the shipping charges. We’re even providing an IOU to slip under the tree if you’re purchasing it as a gift.

Profits will go to World Bicycle Relief.

Ordering information available here.

Very cool.

PS
It’s perfectly OK to promote yourself on your own website. I’d say it’s encouraged.

Couple of familiar dudes down a bit in this post:

Damn, Perkins. He just called your ass OUT.

Well, this just reproves the age-old (in internet time) lesson that you can’t go making fun of people on the internet without having one of thier friends find out about it within hours…
I just wanted a picture of a roadie who looked like an asshole, Perkins, and your picture was the best I could do. Really, I was sort of hoping to get someone with the “I have no feelings” facial expression, but I couldn’t find what I was looking for, I ran across this picture, and I decided it was good enough.
But it’s not, Perkins. It’s not.
So here’s what I’d like to propose:
If one of y’all can find me a pisture of a proper “asshole roadie” (amd maybe make up a nickname for him), I’ll swap out the picture (only to be in hot water with some other dude on some other city’s forum...).
Sorry, Perkins. I’m just a really lazy blogger, and those two-finger whiteboy gang sign things were too much.

Are Lance Armstrong photos really that hard to find?

That’s pretty funny: Jeff Perkins, roadie asshole. This is a guy that drives a schoolbus to the races, mans the barbecue afterwards, and hands grillables and beer to passersby. He’s the anti-roadie.

Perhaps I’m biased, but I mean, if you can’t post up on the State Champ’s podium, when can you? At the line, he was too busy doing this.
