Faces in the Midwest

Over 15 years ago Mike Tag made an impression on the scene in Ft.Wayne Indiana, and in his battle against cancer, the riders there got together and held a jam to help raise money on his behalf. Riders young and old, came together from throughout the midwest, like it was the early 90’s again, for an afternoon of dirt jumping at the 4910 trails, and these are some of the faces I captured during saturday afternoon.
For some great Riding shots, check out Scott Towne’s photos on Dans 360, one of the event sponsors!
