Hehe, I like how you've made the crowd be the action rather than the active cyclists. All the cameras being held up and the excited faces are hilarious. Wish you could make that pop out more somehow. I think there's a risk of this becoming one big blur of people without a focal point. Dare I say it's a bit snap shotty?

Woo hoo! I'm terribly envious. And look at a) the crowd! (go US cycling fans!) and b) all the cameras! Very cool shot.

Nice shot. I'd have cropped it closer and lost the background above the heads of most of the crowd, but that's just a personal thing.
