Vélo Vs Voiture

There are lots of bicycles (vélos) in France. More than we are used to seeing in WA. In the mountains every weekend there are hundreds of people riding their bikes. Bikes with lots of gears, and cyclists in their cycling gear.
Recently, when we were cautiously driving down the narrow winding road of a mountain, we were overtaken by a cyclist. Whoosh and he was gone, so fast that I didn't have time to get my camera focussed to get a photo of him. Indeed I wanted to take a photo of him, as it is not every day that your family wagon is overtaken by a bicycle!
