George Hincapie

Gent-Wevelgem 2010

 

One of my favorite riders for years is 'Big' George Hincapie. A guy who can battle for a win in the cobbled classics and is able to win a TourdeFrance-mountain stage as well. Therefore he is a BIG rider in my book.

 

After trying for almost a year to get him to 'pose' in front of my lens, the american champion was kind enough to let me do what I do for about 3 seconds. All I needed.
