vacation in Morzine Tour De France

Before I came on my first mountain bike holidays in Morzine, when I learned the bicycle connecting words and France, I thought of the Tour de France. No doubt the Tour de France had a huge effect on the cycling culture of France. Road cycling and mountain biking have been at the center of public opinion in France during the last century - the Tour de France has much to do with that fact. This is probably one reason that Morzine has become one of the main ski mountain biking in the world.

Hardly anyone in the world knows the Tour de France, but most of us do not know much more about him. Here are some facts about the Tour de France that most people are not aware of:

The Tour de France was designed by an editor of the sports magazine to promote the magazine. The race was planned to be a difficult and demanding long run through many parts of France. Over the years the Tour de France has become a popular event that captured public attention in France.

The Tour de France is a 21 to 23 race day long. Its course is different each year. The course is always the race circuits around France and sometimes passing through neighboring countries. The race is divided into stages. Each stage is regarded as an independent career. The contestant who gets the lowest total score is declared the winner of the race.

The Tour definitely adds to the culture of cycling in France. I recommend coming to holiday in Morzine bike especially in summer months. The experience of being in France during the peak days of the Tour de France is one of a kind.
