"If you are in a group, doing a ride, and want to take photos, you need to bet in front of everyone, and be able to jump off the bike, set up the shot, shoot everyone, then catch up and repeat. Not easy."

Especially when the only ride I can make is the Nirvana Cycles fast ride where they all go like bullets!

Last week Seb refused to use flash except on 2 shots - one was the test bike shot (which is because the sponsors grumble if there isn't flash) and the other was of us riding across a stream in the gathering gloom at about 4pm.

I got the feeling flash is starting to be regarded as a bit last year.

Doe that mean this year was sunnnier?

If your camera is poor at higher Iso's, your waether is grey, and you forest is dense i flash is a useful tool that doesn't have to cost the earth.

You won't find any decent photographer not using OCF, even on the brightest of days.

This is entirely untrue. Pros will use flash or not depending on circumstances/desired outcome/needs of client.
