Alright, simply as possible.
Duplicate layer.
Mask out cyclist and bike.
Delete background.
"Levels" until black (shadow).
flip vertically
apply perspective and distortion to angle required.
Change layer to "darken" and adjust opacity some. That’ll work, I’m sure there are thousands of other ways.

You probably want to go to the Elements forum for that … many people here don’t know what Elements can do. (Including me).
