Well I googled "Royston Vasey" but I'm none the wiser. I did come across a reference to a cursed vet who causes the death of every animal he treats?

Can't see any waterfall. However, if you just want to show off your bike here's the rules.

1. Photos must be posted here. http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=1374195

2. Bike must be photographed from the drive side.

3. (And most importantly) All photos of your bike must be taken in your kitchen, so we can all make insulting and derisory comments about your poor taste in fitted units.

In fairness, it's a very nice bike. And if it was photographed from the drive side, we'd never see that wonderful bling detailing on the inside of the cranks.

What is that on the rock though? Is it a tube of toothpaste?

And is it really too much to ask for matching water bottles? I mean, you wear matching socks, don't you? Don't You?

Question is, is it the camera or the photographer?
It's like asking Cadel Evens what bike he rides


Mostly I use a Canon 500d slr. It's a good camera but bulky and heavy to be carting on the bike on any long rides or in bad weather.
The photo above is taken with an Olympus FE-200, which is ****. It fits into my jersey pocket and I don't care if it gets wet.

2012 is our fourth year. Very different to life in Ireland, love the French way of life, the weather and the cycling, so far so good! Miss Ireland too and all the family and friends we left behind. The summer months are very hard work (5 months without a day off, 7am to 10pm) but great craic with all the comings and goings, we have cyclists from all over the world. In 2012 we will have cyclists from 20 different countries, mostly Aussies and Americans.

that is amazing! i would say it is very tiring alright. but at least the business is viable it seems! well done for taking such a big risk

not a bad ol area either...but not a patch on Normandy for me

obviously the skill is in the person operating the camera velo

Ill be in the pyrenees later on in the year and am torn between bringing my dslr or a point and shoot. the point and shoot would be a lot lighter, but the dslr takes a nicer picture.

thanks for the response!
