Hi there. I read in the forum that you need constructive pointers so here goes. This would be a great shot if the sun/sky were not making your subject too dark. Either use a fill in flash or keep your back to the sun. Including the sky and the mountain in behind is a great idea if you can pull off the lighting. Welcome to CPC.

Osirus Clicker has good constructive advice. The bike is your subject, the mountain are your Back ground , Now lighting " where is it comming from and what will it look like when I press the shuter.
I have come back to this image twice now.

I really like the way you were able to silouette the bike.i think i would suggest to get lower and try and get just the bike and the sky. The mountain seems to really darken your subject.
At this point, If you were to desaturate the image and then mess a bit with levels. i really think you would have a wonderful shot.

Thanks for the advice, I'm certainly not going to get offended by anyone's opinion so feel free to keep em coming...
Personally, I like this picture as it is. To me the mountain and sky is more of a focal point and the bike is there because it got me to that point of the trip. I have more than enough photos of the bike fully lit 
Now, if I wanted to edit the photo like Rocky says, what would be a good program?
