USA PRO CYCLING CHALLENGE POSTERS
There was a Facebook contest where people can upload posters and judges and the public can vote on them.
One vision I had was inspired by my 2002 visit to Colorado Springs, where we saw Pike's Peak and the Garden of the Gods.
My poster option for the main contest was inspired by the feeling of speed and upward movement, climbing the great mountains of Colorado. I contacted a professional photographer/journalist who covers pro cycling races. The contest states that you must own the rights to the imagery you use, so even if I had the photographer's permission I would not have the model release rights to the image of the pros. Thus I was stuck using a less than perfect image for my main race poster. If selected, I wouldn't mind using an image supplied by the race organization if they owned the rights to it.
