I gave this shot a 10. It was my favorite shot of the challenge. the very shot itself suggests team sports. How many diffrent bikes of the same color are there in the picture... I believe you were robbed of a ribbon. The eight people who rated this a one or two probably have bowling shirts in their closet! Well done shoulda been a contenda.

As I said, sleek. Congratulations on finishing top ten. I think the ones are uncalled for. Really.

I can't believe 6 people gave this a 1 and two a 2. People .. use your brain for a second before you click, YES cycling is a team sport !! Just because it might not be obvious right away but if you think for a second you will realize this.

This was my favorite shot, I wished it finished top 3.

One of my favorite team sports. And my favorite color too. ;) Go Lance! Great use of repeating patterns and lines. Nice color. Not sure I like the crop as much. 8

This is a great shot. I wonder what it would have looked like if you got more of the wheel in the shot.
