Time exposer. He was going a little over the speed limit which caused the slight blur even with the flash. Used 1 Alien Bee B800 with silver reversible umbrella to light.

Very nice, tried a similar shot to this for a road signs challenge, but my SB800 just wasn't powerful enough to expose the bike properly. Be interested to know what equipment you used....
A most arresting image because the light trail entrains the attention to follow it and follow it as it winds. Wow! Congratulations on your top 20 finish and good score.
ok, this is a cool shot, very well executed. all the same, there is nothing in the image that really conveys the idea of sport to me, in the sense of competition, team play, or the like. believe me, i know bike racing is a sport, but i don't get the sense of a race from this image. killer shot, though, and hope it does well for you.
This picture is one of the best in the challenge as far as I am concerned - I love the light coming round the corner, it gives action to the shot - well done 9
