Tribute to the riders who crashed on day 1
Saturday 2nd May 2015
My image today (couldn't get out to watch) relates to 'The Tour de Yorkshire'. I watched the highlights of yesterday's stage and saw the crash involving among others, the Team Sky riders, Ben Swift and Ian Boswell. The surface looked very shinny and almost oily with the rain beginning to fall on a steep downhill gradient into a sweeping right hand bend. Once the back wheel went on the bend there was no chance. It was so sad to watch the riders crashing out on day one, some with serious injuries. So, to my image. I took a photograph of my own bike and cycle helmet. Both images were manipulated, with the helmet in outline, under pinning a very twisted bike frame. The Tour colours of blue and yellow form the backdrop, but also relate to the sea and the land.
