Horses Versus Bicycles.
Horeflesh versus bicycle races have become the order of the day. A few weeks ago the Due de Brissac on horseback was matched against M. Lebaudy on a wheeled borse for a run from Rambouillet to Suresuee, a distance of a little over thirty miles. Despite a tumble, the Due de Brissac made the distance in 2 hours and 15 minutes, beating his competitor by 80 yards.
