Film Synopsis
In the early 1900s, Jules Auguste Duroc has invented a revolutionary
new bicycle which he hopes will make his fortune. Unfortunately,
he has managed to bankrupt himself before he can profit from his
invention. When the over-zealous bailiff Léon Charles
Mulot calls at his shop, Duroc makes a hasty retreat on his bicycle,
and ends up at the starting line of the Paris to San Remo cycle
race. The adventure has only just begun!
