A good image and excellent model. The metal parts of the bike look really
good.

POV-Ray could use some better anti-aliasing options. I believe people are
resorting to rendering an image very large and re-sampling it down using a
Gaussian blur to get rid of this type of aliasing. However the aliasing
isn't really a distraction here.

I think the finishes are excellent, but the textures could do with some more
dirt and grime variation layered on top, and possibly some isosurfaces to
break up the smoothness. Good lighting; it might be nice to have an area
light for a more realistic soft shadow, but it would be a small effect. The
overall scene has a nice composition and a well-chosen perspective.
