I had a fun time shooting the Cactus Cup 2026 PRO Short Track races. 2 short fast paced crit style races. I planned out a nice spot with the sun to my back with some nice action. Enjoy and share. Thank you @thecactuscup for another fun year. It makes my memories of the first ones that much more precious to me. 124 total photos from the 2 races on Flickr. Cut and paste the link below to goto the album.
