Priest (or someone dressed as a priest) going at an insane clip on a foldable bike

I don't think the cycle racers could believe what they were seeing (if that's not a clickbait line, I don't know what is).

on racing bikes with that small wheeled foldaway bike.

Much of that must've been downhill—very dangerous too. I was keeping my fingers crossed hoping nothing went wrong with his bike or some car or person unexpectedly got in his path.

For the amount of pedaling done, that was one heck of a downhill route. I can't imagine mixing it up with vehicles like that in the US, they would run you off the road without a second thought.

The apparent speeds that they were hitting and blind corners... I'm going to need some new bike shorts...
