Great shots - especially #7 (bike #99) with the elbow slider - nice shot.

(Could you number the pics next time? - makes it easier for comments)

#1 and #7 are superb - excellent pose on the bike, great use of shutter speed, but it is the inclusion of a second bike in the background that really makes them special in my opinion.

Thanks Simon, Was really happy with those two shot as had to use stacked 1.4x TCs on my 400 f5.6 (784mm) to get the focal length from behind the fence.

all of em were very nice.. each and every one of em.. it gives a feeling of the rush and faling of my chair.. looking at them grip each corner..
