What is “CYYYCLES”?

Well, this is just one person, Julien Douvier, a bike mechanic currently living near Paris - France.

This website is just a gallery to showcase the cycling photos and videos I shoot as a hobby since 2014.
I don't really know why I'm doing this, and I don't know when I will stop, but I wanted to keep a track of it.

I used to be a pro photo/videographer some time ago, click here to see here what I used to do back then.

The real reason I started photographing my friends and their bikes in 2014 was because I needed something to shoot to learn how to use my camera in order to become a pro photographer. It didn't work out as planned—today I'm no longer a photographer, but I've continued to shoot bikes.

More infos about me in this film︎

Why and how I started photographing bicycles, my serious cycling accident from 2023, and the book I created as a result.



I had a lot of trouble speaking during the filming of this video, which remains the most annoying consequence of the accident, but at least, I can still ride bikes︎
