The Tour de France cycling race in Paris

The Tour de France is a major international cycling competition. The Tour de France final is always taking place on the Champs Elysees in Paris.

It is a traditional and much loved Parisian event.

Don't miss it if you happen to be in Paris end of July. Come early in the morming. The Champs Elysees are then very crowded (below). See map.

If you happen to be in Paris next summer, be aware that the 98th edition of Tour de France will arrive in Paris on July 25th 2010.

If you want to ride bicycles in Paris, be aware we now have the very practicle Velib bicycle rental system.

That is not the Tour de France, but a much appreciated way of visiting Paris. You will love it.
