Formula 1 and Tour de France ?

My two nephews are both doctors, very successful ones too. But when they were younger they had different aspirations for successful careers. As you can see in this photo, with grandparents and family members looking on at Christmas of 1994, Julian the older one, was aspiring to become a cyclist, maybe even ending up in the Tour de France or Giro d‘Italia. You can see him here with his helmet on his bike, even with training wheels if you notice closely. Unfortunately for him and fortunately for many of his patients, he didn’t make it on the pro tour. On the other hand, the younger nephew, Peter had his mind set on the Formula 1 circuit. He did learn how to drive, very cautiously I would say, but never took part in any professional races, but now he serves patients at the local hospital, with commendable success too. I’m sure Mark Cavendish, the sprint cyclist, and Lewis Hamilton, the car racer extraordinaire, are glad they didn’t have to face them in any races.
