Here are some typical French bikes and their riders, taken over the course of the week:
 |
| French postal bike. Note the front rack and built in kickstand for extra stability. |
 |
| Panniers seem to be the most popular type of bike luggage |
 |
| Nice panniers |
 |
| Full mudguards and dynamo lighting is pretty common |
 |
| An old work trike and town bike in a Parisian side street |
 |
| Vélib (the Paris bicycle share program) is quite popular |
