I recommend low angles or profile shots. For the best pictures, find a long stretch, a tight corner, or a place with a good backdrop.

The great thing about cycling is how photogenic it is. I’d say it’s one of easier sports to take pictures of, especially if you’ve found a spot the morning of and planned out your shot . You should get some awesome photos.

Perks of being the only fan by the road.

Astana rider basically handed the bottle to me.

And here are the promised photos. I'm actually quite happy with them, as in the end I didn't have much time to pick the perfect spot.

 

Unknown Israel Cycling Academy rider...

 

 

That camera was looking right at me...

 

 

Astana and CCC... My two new favorite teams.

Yep, thanks too the Tour Of California I haven’t had to buy sports bottles in 5 years. I lost a bunch recently though. I think I’m done to five. The CCC one looks nice. I have 3 for other teams that use the same bottle design as Astana. Maybe I’ll take pictures of the bottles later if I ever get out of bed this morning.

Great photos . You actually got lucky with a scenic spot and a good angle. Are CCC and Astana the only teams racing Tour Of CRO?

Trentin drove nice after UCI ... it's hard to disagree.

I have a CCC water bottle somewhere that is over 10 years old. If I find him at home, I'll share it. However, when I go on a bike I have BORY, Astana, Movistar, FDJ, AG2r and Sky bottles from the previous season.
