On October 13, 1978, the rock band Queen released the song Bicycle Race. The song was inspired and written by Freddie Mercury as he watched the 18th stage of the 1978 Tour de France when the riders passed the Montreux studio where the band was recording their album Jazz. The song has the iconic lyrics, “I want to ride my bicycle, I want to ride my bike.” Many commercials have used the song to promote products, including TurboTax® during the 2026 tax season. The song was used in 2017 to promote the Tour de France.
