this was a totally blown exposure...3 stops+ overexposed. Somehow I switched to manual exposure and thought I was in aperture priority. Salvaged because it was shot raw.

Cool shot - but a little distracting - maybe moving a little to the left or lower would clean up the cluttered background. That, or opening up the aperature for a shallow DOF. Not sure about the B&W for this subject.
8 - Good action shot. Good crowd feel too. Criticism; sharper focus, more 'bold, on the rider, maybe tighter crop (top right), perhaps showing more depth/perspective of where he is going to land.
I would have cropped out the snappers on the LHS. Nice BW though. It's hard to BW a shot with a cluttered background, but the long shot helps by misting the distance.
great subject, the biker is a little underexposed. It's so hard to tell what is my screen and what is the picture (although I believe I have the gamma and contrast set correctly).
Might have cropped out the left third or so of this one. Too many distracting people in perfect focus competing with the rider. The B&W is a nice touch though.
