Cool shot. Sharp subject at the front really stands out. Really grabs your attention.

Good timing, good focus and I like the color contrast from the shirt to the surroundings.

Nice idea, but the back of the biker is not that interesting. Would have been great to photograph from the other side, so that we see his face instead. Depth of field is pretty good.
