MX FAN

a year ago at Thunder Valley National MX, Colorado, i was supposed to shoot action photos, but spent more time takin photographs of the crowd, and when i saw this dude, i couldn't believe it. he said" next ones are ONEindustries, Hart & Huntington, Makita, Racer X, Fox racing " !!!! sure this man is dedicated to MX.

R.I.P ANDREW Mc FARLANE

last sunday, i was on my way for a vintage Trial ride with Dr Oldschool and The Admiral, and checking the news, i learned a very sad one. Andrew Mc Farlane just passed away !!!
Andrew was a very talented motocross rider. A true Globe-Trotter as he raced not only in his homecountry in Australia, but also in the US, and in Europe where he finished 2nd of the World MX2 championship back in 2005. he crashed last sunday in Australia on a practice lap very hard on the head and died on the track. he was supposed to retire at the end of this season, and we all feel very sad.
i had the chance to meet him several times when he was racing in the US on the ONE industries campaign and catalog photoshoot. always a pleasure, and a very nice guy. below, a sample spread of the ONEind helmet 09 catalog feat my favorite portrait i shot of him. all my thoughts go to his wife Nathalie and his daughter Tayla. Rest in Peace Andrew.
