" GO FASTER! "
(my guess as to what was being yelled)

As I mentioned in a recent post, the local cyclocross circuit came to Kyoto last week. In the photo above, Jason Eisenmenger is yelling encouragement(?) to rider Yukikaze Ishiyama.

I'd met Yukikaze earlier in the week when Jason and Joey, during their visit to Kyoto, had paid him a visit at his work while we were out and about.

This is the same race that I wrote about two years ago, in a series of posts starting with Watching My First Cyclocross Bike Race. I'd intended to blog about it right away, but got overwhelmed by the 1,400 photos I took. I hope to slog through enough for another post soon...
