Hi Mick,
Like I said, for me it is a mindset. In my country we have a huge infra structure for cyclists. However the number of cycling accidents rises quickly, mainly because cyclist bump into street furniture or because they misjudge their speed (mainly electric bikes), strange enough collisions with cars or other traffic is actually a minority of the accidents. When I'm in France I'm not used to share the roads with fast driving cars, however I do realise it is normal for the people who live there. Most cars give the cyclists all the room they need.
I've cycled in many different countries, the UK is by far the worst country to cycle
On the picture my bike at the top of Mont Garrot overlooking the river Rance. Pleurtuit is the village you see at the opposite bank. However like I already said it is hard to see anything form the airfield....
Cheers,
Huub
