That's pretty easy to adjust. What color sky do you prefer? Here I adjusted to Blue/Cyan saturation...

It is quite easy to black out the grass and the riders because the difference between the sky and the foreground is so stark, so I was thinking a little bit of the jerseys and the grass being visible is useful, plus, I ensured their faces were totally black, however, if you like the totally black silhouette, I can see the attraction.
