Rowlett Creek Preserve is a series of looped trails in Garland, Texas. Most of it is flat with some roots, but there are occasional spots where one can kill oneself. I've done a lot of walking out there, never have done much riding though.
Anyway, a couple of years ago, I got to noticing that one of the dips there has the riders traveling in kind of a half circle, so I tried some panning shots to show the motion, with the camera rotating rather than moving horizontally. First shot shows the set-up, with some distortion due to a fisheye lens, with the other shots rotated. I don't know the riders, they were just folks that passed by while I waited.

Cool pictures. Panning can be tricky, and I would imagine moving the camera in a half circle would add to the difficulty quite a bit!
