Peter Fonda in Easy Rider...Then came Clint Eastwood in Pale Rider...Now we have COLD RIDER!!!!

While on my walk today, this brave, but probably cold, biker came by. This is my first bike shot with my new camera and so is my first of the "bike season"!!! brrrrrr...It was about 25 degrees today, but it was a nice sunny day. One of few we've had recently. Oh and btw...it snowed last night...believe it or not!!!! hahaha
I had a few seconds to setup my camera on this so want to ask what you think of my settings. I was shooting at ISO 50 f7.7 @ 1/60 sec. spot metered (center). I ps'ed it a bit to sharpen as it was a bit soft and of course to crop it.

Geez!!! I think it's too cold to ride when it gets below 60 degrees!

Great shot Ken. And knowing that it was taken with a Coolpix, it speaks volumes about your foresight in setting up the shot. The Coolpix's are very capable camera's, but responsiveness is NOT their strong suit. Great catch!
