The font that i choose is Copperplate Gothic Bold. Next I use Polygonial Lasso tool to cut the super bike and duplicate the layer. Last, I desaturate the duplicated layer.

First I added a text 'Road To Texas' using Copperplate Gothic Bold font. Next I rasterize the image and rotate the text. Lastly, I distort it to make it lay on the road.
