 Taken durning 4th of July Parade, This guy was not moving at the time I took the photo, in fact he almost looked like he was going to keel over. It was very hot and humid.
only half way through the route too I have reason to believe he didnt finish the parade.

To me the subject matter doesn't look like he is resting but in the process of getting started. The rider's right foot is under the pedal, trying to bring it forward so he can get started again, instead of on top in the rest position. Second, the focal point needs to be on the rider's eyes. As presented, the handlebars are in sharper focus than the face of the rider.

Looks like he's about to push-off. Maybe a litte to close to motion for the theme.
