Uniform colours

Hello,

I am researching the uniform of the WW1 cyclist.

I'm looking to find information on the different uniforms used by the cycliste. I think before 1914 it was the dark blue? And after this was it the light blue like the poilu?

Any good links for uniforms would be great.

Many thanks for any help.

Kind regards

James Tobin

You can also ask some reenactment groups.
