Stick to AV mode (or TV mode)

Mdj... Don't make fast rules for yourself. Do what you find is useful and meaningful at the time.
Like you say, learn from what any mode offers. I never get off Manual mode, except that I will
set my AF lenses to AF and stabilisation ON. No one thing is any better than any other all the time.

CC: You achieved a good and interesting result with that cyclist. Two other things about this pic:
1. Pity you truncated his front wheel (and he probably came a cropper just out of the frame).
2. That blurred car is a distraction here. If you could have avoided it, better.

You must try this again with more space about the rider, so that you can eliminate any unwanted
vehicles.

Yeah that chopped wheel rim is a pitty. i tried to take some more on other cyclists but nothing came up good. Was bit busy on that time of the day. But yeah will try again for sure
I was panning on TV mode on burst shots. (think it was 1/60) so that car caught up just in time with the good image. I checked on other images, this is by far the best one...sigh.

By sticking to AV i mean for beginner like me it is so much easier to learn before I step up to a more manual later. Thanks again Ameerat

And once you learn more you may find no reason to step up to a more manual. It can of cause depend on the photo you are taking.
It is good that you have found a way to help your learning process. Chopping and changing what to do leads to not learning what and why and dissatisfaction.
Don't be afraid to use ISO 400-800 to get shutter speed up if needs be.
