Cyclists competing in a race on a sunny day. The focus is on two leading cyclists wearing helmets and glasses, one in a green jersey and the other in an orange jersey. More cyclists are visible in the background, with trees lining the road. A group of cyclists ride on a scenic gravel path surrounded by greenery and trees, with mountains in the background. They are wearing helmets and colorful cycling gear, participating in what appears to be an organized race or event. Cyclists ride mountain bikes on a dusty dirt road through a sunlit forest, surrounded by tall trees, with more riders visible in the background. A large group of cyclists, wearing jerseys and helmets, ride closely together on a sunny, tree-lined road. The road curves to the left, and the cyclists are in motion, creating a sense of energy and movement. A person wearing a red jacket is mountain biking on a dirt trail through a forest of tall pine trees. The sky is clear blue with some distant clouds. Snow-capped mountains are visible in the background. Cyclists relax at a bike valet station outdoors. They're under umbrellas, with some seated and others standing beside their bikes. A banner reads "Bike Valet," and trees are visible in the background. Bright, sunny weather enhances the scene. Two children in princess costumes and helmets sit in a brightly lit bike trailer, accompanied by two adults in bear costumes decorated with colorful lights, all outdoors at night.
