Interesting use of DOF/blur enhances the emotive qualities -- well-done.

I love the composition combining curves and straight lines, solid rigidity contrasted with the cyclist; processing suits the subject/environment well.

Before I read your comments, I had virtually the same reaction. I've seen many films over the years depicting this activity, but never from this perspective nor this quality. Congratulations!

ETA: I just re-read that this is a helicopter, not a jet. I don't think I've ever seen that! :-)

One Too Many Low Scores

I'm sure it was the specificity of the challenge description:

Without the title it could refer to photography in general, but the reference to low scores seems to tie it directly to the DPC experience.

I didn't vote on this one, and that's not necessarily my own opinion of the shot, but it's how I'd answer your question.

I've noticed that this effect works best when the major elements are parallel or perpendicular to the sensor plane. This still looks good though, even with the pier slanting a bit.
