What do you think of ...

If I had a front basket I would need mudguards too!

I see problems with the shadow - nice to be included but doen't then provide enough space into which the chap cycles. Pity the shadow isn't bigger but that would mean a higher viewpoint which you didn't have. I sometimes wish I carried around a step-ladder.
What happens if you do a drastic crop?

Probably a bit difficult to achieve in that light but a little movement blur of the wheels would have made it for me ... he sort of looks like he's just balancing there! :D

Nice photograph though just the same. :)

... not in Greece, if it rains the roads are lethal, one wouldn't go out on a bike.

I think it's the shadow that I don't like, but I'm not sure why

Keith; motion blur wasn't an option, I didn't have time or the balance ... I was perched on a waste bin at the time
 
I'm uncomfortable with the shadow and the bright line caused by the wake of a ferry just below the horizon ... is it just me?
 
What I like are the horizontal stripes (bands not sure of the word) of different grey. What I do not like ( this is just my taste) is the cyclist in the middle of the frame. I had preferred to see him more on the right border of the frame. And a slower time with some blurring in the wheels could have add something, but I know, not always possible to set everything as we desire...

I'd have liked to see the bike more to the right. I always like moving figures better when they're leaving the frame. If you think of the bike and the shadow as a unit and center the whole unit, that would work nicely. Very nice photo.
