Twilight.
This year it was most exciting with the added effects of heavy rain.
I went last year for the first time and had a lot of fun watching the cyclist pedal by at a speed that is too quick and in light that is too dim for my camera to take pictures well. So I get these blurred pictures...but I like the blurred photos better than the stop action ones. Maybe because it gives me a sense of feeling as if I am still there in the energy and excitement of the moment of watching countless bikes go zooming by as I cheer with unknown souls around me for these 'ghost riders' whom I've never seen or heard of before. It gives me a sense of community and belonging in this sweet sweet town on Athens.
Athens, I love you.
