Michaelskreuzrennen (Hill climb) in Switzerland

Hey all,

Just spent the day at Michaelskreuzrennen which is about 30mins from where I live near Zurich in Switzerland.

A nice collection of classic cars, bikes and bicycles.

Enjoy the photos and check out my smugmug gallery for lots more.

Nice sidecar shots. Must have been a lot of fun to watch.

Thanks - it was - honestly a lot of the time I was shooting into the sun and was trying out fill flash

Not sure I'm soooo thrilled on all the results - but hey have to learn somehow

Cheers, Jase

Great pictures. I love the composition and action. I also like the duct tape repaired trousers in #9. What lens were you using?

Hey there, thanks for the compliments

The only lens I have at the moment which is the not-so-fast 18-200mm Nikkor f3.5-5.6
Luckily it was a nice sunny day so plenty of light to be had.

Yeah I've seen the duct tape repair a few times on side car riders - amazing how close they go - not sure if I'd have the guts to do that!

Cheers, Jase
