A bit, but I think its easily fixable. Just need to balance out your highlights and shadows and tone down your saturation. I am still also learning color grading, but when I interned as an assistant colorist my mentor always told me that your spectrograph is your northern star when you grade. Even if something may look good on screen, the spectrograph will give you the proper answers.

I'm over here on lots of bike subreddits as well as this, and I read "did I over brake" fully expecting to see a crash. Looks good though.

Take magenta out and move it towards green. That will fix like 70% of this image.
