Round the World in 30 Days

Photo of the Day – Tour de France, Paris

First staged in 1903, the annual Tour de France covers more than 2,200 miles through France and nearby countries over the course of 3 weeks.  A few years ago, I was lucky enough to be in Paris for the final stage down the Champs-Élysées.  Having followed the event for years, it was amazing to be standing along the course and watch the cyclists fly by us 10 times on the final stretch.  It was a great experience and someday I hope to have the opportunity to see a stage in the Alps.  This year’s tour starts July 2nd from the Passage du Gois!
