Rich Cruse's Message: These are images from Muddy Buddy in San Dimas, CA

I have been a photographer since age 10. I developed my first roll of film in 6th grade. I worked as the photo editor on my high school newspaper, then as a stringer for the local paper covering high school sports.

In 1984, I saw the Olympic Road Cycling race in Mission Viejo and was hooked on cycling. In 1985, I did my first 50 mile ride, then in 1986 my first triathlon. These sports are my passion and I have photographed them now for over 20 years.

My specialty is location action photography. I am available for commercial and editorial assignments. My race experience allows me to work quickly and efficiently. I am also a member of NPPA and follow their code of ethics.
