Goosey Posted January 6, 2004 Share Posted January 6, 2004 Hello all, does anyone know when they announce the route of this year's Tour? Is it already known? I've tried the official website, but I can't find a detailed route map. Anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A_Redman Posted January 6, 2004 Share Posted January 6, 2004 Typical French website very flash very complex to navigate. Click on the route, then select The Route in Flash when it has stopped drawing the route there are buttons to the left which will describe the route day by day. If you know exactly the area ;local tourist office may have advice /leaflets already available.http://www.letour.fr/2004/presentationus/profil10.htmlhttp://www.letour.fr/2004/presentationus/parcours_flash2.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moon Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 My cousin and her (frenc) husband are coming over from the US especially for the Tour this year, and as a stage finishes at Gueret which is less than 30 minutes from our house in france we are all looking forward to July.Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merteuil2 Posted May 15, 2004 Share Posted May 15, 2004 Has anyone read Tim Moore's book, "French Revolutions", about his attempt to cycle the Tour route? All very tongue-in-cheek and a lot of poetic licence, but I found the description of his attempts to find out the tour route from officials hilarious. It reminded me of every encounter I have ever had with French bureaucracy.Liz (99) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 A useful site for all things connected to professional cycling is a Dutch website (but written in English)www.cycling4all.com Up to date information on the TdF route - teams - results etc.Sad to see that with David Millar being banned from riding this year that it will be the first time there has not been a British rider at the start for many years.Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rw Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 The organisers have now published the whole route - it can be found on: www.letour.frI am going out for a few days and my tip to anyone who has never seen the race, is get there early to soak up the atmosphere and have a great day. See you there.RW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
