Cyclists ride on a paved road through rolling green hills with yellow flowers. A wooden fence lines the road, and the sea is visible in the background. The sky is partly cloudy. Two cyclists high-five each other while riding on a scenic road lined with greenery and yellow flowering bushes. Both are in cycling attire with bib numbers attached to their jerseys. The road curves gently, and other cyclists are visible in the background.
