The 2011 season is off to a great start for WORS Photographers. There are so many good shots that we hope you'll check out all of the finalists at WORS Flickr, here. Below, you'll find the winners of the contest for the Crystal Lake Classic and the Trek Big Ring Classic.

WORS is very pleased to announce our official 2011 TeamWORS videographer and our amazing new demo racer cameras from product sponsor Contour. Here's a couple examples of the Contour cameras in action. The first, hosted at Vimeo, gives a better idea of the high quality of the image captured by the Contour camera. The video is a complete, unedited download of the Kinetic Citizen Series race at the Chippewa Valley Firecracker.
