Around Azeroth: Waiting...
Reader Andy sends in this unique perspective of Arathi Basin, pre-battle. And though any of you who have run AB will know this view by heart as you autorun up against the gate, ready to spring forth as soon as possible, this particular moment of tension is rarely captured in screenshot form. Just look at the blacksmith in the distance, an undefended node, ripe for the capturing, as soon as these pesky gates open!
Do you have any unusual World of Warcraft images that are just collecting dust in your screenshots folder? Because we'd love to see your idea of the best looking instance on Around Azeroth! Sharing your screenshot is as simple as e-mailing aroundazeroth@wowinsider.com with a copy of your shot and a brief explanation of the scene. You could be featured here next!

Being about ten feet, then rushing forward as the gate opens, puts you in the lead to cap the farm or the stables.

Dang! That was "being about ten feet BACK". Sheesh. Anyway, give it a try.

Agreed, I think because that starts the whole server lag compensation leeway thing, and you can sometime actually seem to be through the gates before they actually are opened.
That is one of the more annoying of the BG waits. Not sure why - EotS is really annoying since it traps the camera too and you can't move out from under the bubble, and WSG doesn't even let you mount first, but the AB wait seems to take the longest time. Maybe, because, as you say, all those nodes are just waiting for you, tempting you.

10 feet is about right. Plus the riding crop gives you that extra boost.
