Good composition, but failed to capture any emotion, which is tough. You've gotta be in the right place at the right time.

Color and clarity are really good, but I don't get the feeling of speed here as it's more implied. I think had you used the panning technique with a slower shutter speed the background would have been more blurred and would have conveyed speed better. You can even see the spokes in the wheels suggesting to me they were going fairly slow at the time you exposed the shot.

Needs zooming in, send them round again and get them to bunch up a bit next time.

Perhaps some motion blur, or some background blur to give them some movement would have been more effective in giving a sense of speed.

nice shot. i think maybe some motion blurring would help this shot convey speed. panning with the cyclists and using a slow shutter speed would keep them in focus while blurring the background, giving the impression that the cyclists are hauling some butt!

Nice composition, and good color. However......I don't see speed. I know it's there but don't see it here. Sorry.
