[A blond young man in a red sleeveless jersey and red shorts, seen from behind, looks back over his shoulder while gripping the handlebars of an upright bicycle. Behind him on a dark ground three racing cyclists ride orange bicycles side by side. The orange-red streaked ground fills the lower half. A horizontal fold crosses the sheet at mid height.]
