Not sure how to word it, but looking for a large background poster of a road through a mountain pass, maybe with other riders on it. Maybe a large grab of a race through a classics street, but blown up. Side on..
You can maybe guess what I'm sort of going for here, I'm not great with arty descriptions
Some rough examples, though not up the standard I'm looking for: (need better composition, quality, etc)

Nice guys!
Also got a cracking search term 'mural' for it. Got lots of ideas now. Actually leaning towards greenery now - like a forest backdrop

I remember years ago when that photograph was on the cover of the Palo Alto Bicycle catalogue- I wish I hadn't thrown that out!

Thanks for suggesting Wallsauce!
If you tell me a little bit more about what you are looking for, I can make some suggestions for you. We have quite a few bicycle/ cycling murals and a huge choice of greenery. You might also be interested in some motivational images, such as mountain peaks and hills:

We can also turn any image that you own into a wall mural. See this link for more info:

I see that you are an old geezer too.
I loved those catalogs.

With the exception of the B&W one (sorry!), these are fantastic images. Forget training in the basement, these make me want to watch bike races in th basement.
I've got my eye on a non-cycling mural for my basement. Not that you care, but I want Jimmy Cooper on a Lambretta scooter. Check out this seller:

I snagged this bad boy within my first few days of arriving in the greater Palo Alto area - sans bike.
Get your Avocet cranksets while they last.
