Ellen Nobel leads the U23 field off the line during the Cyclocross National Championships in Asheville.

It’s always an interesting moment seeing this force of power come at you when seconds before there was mostly silence and nerves on the other side of that white line.

Nobel went on to take another National title about an hour after this photo was taken.  Want to see her victoriously crossing that finish line?  Give us a follow on our Instagram for more things cross and I’m sure you’ll come across some of her finish line photos over the years.  I don’t suspect those images will be stopping anytime soon.

Of course if you need a photographer please don’t hesitate to reach out!
