The Tour starts in Fromentine, on the west coast of France on Saturday 2nd July. The Tour will then cause chaos across central France as it heads for Karlsruhe, Germany (Friday 8th July) when the tour then heads south or west or somewhere like that. If you are touring France in July check the tour route or you could be in for some long waits. For those who have not been caught-up in the Tour before, the Gendarmes close a rolling section of the road some 4 hrs before the riders come through, so a long wait if you need to get somewhere. For those who have seen it - whether planned or not - it is quite a sight, and everything, I mean everything takes a back seat where the Tour comes through. Take a look at this link for full course details. http://www.letour.fr/2005/presentationus/index.html Safe travelling Don

Watch out for used syringes on the road. ( See Tour de France, in archive section).
