Tour de France

It's the perfect time to talk about the Tour de France.
Did you know that in 1903, Geo Lefevre, a journalist from "l'Auto Magazine" conceived a 2,828km cycle race around France? He would never have imagined it might grow into the world's greatest annual sporting event!
Things have changed since 1903 and the race is now about 3,600km.
