I would have wanted the whole bike in there as well, but I had a prime (A f1.7 50mm) and there was junk just below the frame that would have ruined the shot had I stepped back. With a zoom I could have widened and moved forward to get the bike in and the junk out, but I just didn't have that option. With a vertical frame I would have had to move even farther back, so the foreground junk would have been even harder to get rid of. Thanks for the thoughts - I was of the same mind as you, believe me, but I did what I thought was the best framing I could given my restrictions.
