If you've ever watched the Tour de France, you've seen cyclists speeding along the route, pedaling like mad, hunched over their handlebars. They certainly are not taking time to appreciate the scenery; all they're thinking of is the finish line. A person who is so focused on her work and her end goals that she pays too little attention to every other aspect of her life is said by the French to have her "head in the handlebars"—avoir la tĂȘte dans le guidon.
