Last February, I did a full day with the Nike team. I rode doubles, camera in hand for this shot of Ben. There were so many “keepers” that I wanted to hang on to for The Standerd but I was obligated to turn in all the shots to Nike.
A few months passed with no signs of any of these shots surfacing so I decided to call Nike team manager Silas Thurman to see what the deal was. This shot in particular was branded into my head enough that I asked about it specifically.
It was still “undecided,” so I told Silas if he sent it back to me, there was a good chance we’d run it pretty decent size our book. Two days later, the photos arrived and BAM…in the book it went. Full-pager to Ben Horan. Thanks Nike.
