The Doug Graham Cycling Photo Classic invites riders, spectators, families, and supporters of the Armed Forces Cycling Classic to share their personal view of race weekend through photography.
Whether it is the excitement of competition, the joy of the crowd, the colors of the day, the cycling culture and environment of Arlington, Washington DC, and the surrounding region, or the quiet details others may miss, we encourage you to capture and share the moments that define your experience of the event.
This first-year community photography initiative celebrates the spirit of cycling, storytelling, and observation that Doug Graham brought to the AFCC for decades while standing alongside the event and the people who made it special.
