- Alna Burato - HD Action Profile

- With talk of the Vuelta a Espana possibly following the lead of the Tour de France and holding a women's event as early as 2015, I've decided to feature a women's pro rider each day of the 2014 Vuelta a Espana in an attempt to show organizers and others that interest is there.  I had planned to carry out the photography part of this project at the women's Tour Languedoc Roussillon in May.  Alas, the 2014 edition of T-L-R was cancelled.  So I chose this week's women's Trophée d'Or race (August 23-27), specifically the Stage 2 time trial.  These "HD Action Profiles" show the women in action, the bikes, the kits and sponsors.  Below is Alna Burato of France who rides for Topsport Vlaanderen-CM Auber 93.  -Pete
