I was lucky enough to shoot a couple of guys who really know what they're doing on a bike,on the left is ex gp rider Tony Marshall and on the right is Swift Suzuki gp rider Jake Nicholls. Had a bit of spare time in the afternoon and grabbed this when the boys were playing!Hope you like it.

That is a nice capture. Little flat though, maybe a bump in contrast?

Yeah you're right.To be honest I should have used a flash,but you know how it is.....end of a long day and my gear was about 250 yards away!!
I've bumped up the contrast a little and tweaked the saturation to lift it from the background a bit,which incidentally was a horrible featureless grey/white. If I hadn't been so lazy and got it right in camera in the first place.....!!!
