Conor McGregor is always making headlines.
Mind you, this time it’s different because the 35-year-old MMA fighter made headlines for the most unusual of reasons.
This time around, Conor McGregor made headlines because… he was riding a bike in France.

Yep, you read that right, he didn’t make any controversial statements on social media, he didn’t buy anything crazy, didn’t mention any upcoming fights with Mayweather.
He was just riding a bike.
The UFC star was filmed while casually riding a bicycle in Cannes, in the French Riviera, and the clip went viral on Instagram.
What makes the clip particularly noteworthy is that people seem to find McGregor on a bike more interesting than a $3 million Bugatti Chiron.
The Instagram reel shared by car photographer Ge_supercars begins with a crowd standing around a Bugatti Chiron outside the Ritz-Carlton hotel in Cannes.
People are taking pictures and videos while staring at the $3 million hypercar.
However, just a few moments later, Conor McGregor casually rides his bicycle past the car and most people, including the guy who filmed this, stop looking at the car to take pictures of McGregor.
Ironically, Conor McGregor himself briefly stops looking at the road ahead and turns around to look at the car.
As far as we’re aware, Conor McGregor doesn’t own a Bugatti Chiron at the moment, so perhaps he’s just considering buying one.
With a personal net worth in excess of $200 million, he can certainly afford it.
