PARIS—Novak Djokovic traded his racket for a bicycle and swapped the French Open’s clay courts for the cobblestone streets of Paris during a nighttime trip around the Arc de Triomphe.

“I have done some bike rides in the past in Paris, but I haven’t done one in a while,” the 24-time Grand Slam champion said after his second-round victory over Corentin Moutet in the tournament on Thursday. “Roland-Garros was kind enough to gift me a bicycle, so I used it yesterday for the first time.”
