Le Tour ‘24
« on: 27 May, 2024, 05:41:53 pm »
In an idle moment I decided to,have a look at this years Tour route. Blimey though but…

A first time start in Italy

Five separate visits to the various mountains of France.

And no finish along the Camps-Élysées. In fact, no Paris at all.

Oh and the last day will be a racing day because it’s an individual TT. The second of this year’s Tour.

Obviously we can’t say how much of a spectacle it will be, but the commissionaires have certainly set a route to give it a chance.
For every complex problem in the world, there is a simple and easily understood solution that’s wrong.

How can "paris be booked" Shirley they knew when the tDf would be coming through well in advance?

In the meantime I'm sure we'd all like to wish Bethany (14) a happy birthday ;)
