Tennis, volleyball, soccer but no cycling?

Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

As far as I've been able to discern, Bodies: The Exhibition does not have a (road) cyclist.

https://www.bodiestheexhibition.com/

My estate docs specify that my body goes for medical research. Maybe I'll change it and wind up on display. Or maybe someone else here, who has a better cycling body, would like to step forward?

Thoughts?

I never saw that exhibit, but I DID see BodyWorld when it came to Charlotte. And it was amazing. So cool.

Someone would have to die while still in cycling shape though. It doesn't do you much good to look at the body of a 90 year old who was a professional cyclist 60 years ago.

Does it have football, baseball, basketball?

No?

Then we're in good company.

Yeah, I saw that one in Los Angeles, and it had a cyclist as well as a poster talking about Lance's big heart.
