My husband on the bike. The seat looks high because he’s just standing on the edge of the bridge. He’s 6’3, so the seat does have to be that height when he actually sits on it.

I can’t believe how well this is doing, and 6 comments in voting - that rarely happens!! But then I voted and realized that there were a lot of cool photos in this challenge.

I hit just over 600 miles on my bike last year, but considering that most of those were from august on, I’m happy. Hoping that I can keep going in 2022. My bike is inside now, doing Zwift for the next couple of days because of bad weather. If anyone else does Zwift, let me know!

thanks for the comments!

This is outstanding and so creative! I do like it better with the mirror image rotation (I saw that thread) but really awesome either way. Congratulations!

Nicely done Wendy! I probably would also flipped it horizontally, for a more natural direction of motion.

Love it! Wonderful graphics and interest, lovely tones. How nice that the biker was riding through grassland. The rotation is inspired; I would not now flip it so the biker was riding L to R, I think - or at least try it that way to see :) My 10.

very cool take disorienting but very interesting, that's a very high seat position or at least it looks that way in the shadow, like the limited palette

After all the damn dog pics I thought we had one on a bike for a moment there. Great job with the angle and overall composition.
