Tour de France

I've suddenly come to the harsh realization that some people are very dumb. A woman came up to some Fat Tire employees and asked "what was going on?" while the Tour de France was riding into town. I understand not knowing that the tour was coming through Paris that day, but then she proceeded to ask "what's the Tour de France?"

So (not to insult anyone's intelligence or anything) but the Tour de France is a really big bike race! And it ends in Paris every year on the last Sunday of the month... in fact it ends in the Place de la Concorde - they make 8 loops from the Arc de Triomphe to the Place and then its over. Yay!

I was lazy and didn't go to the Place to watch it end, but it did ride down the quai right next to my apartment, so I got a video.

Carlos Sastre won (he's Spanish). Sad for all the Australians rooting for Cadel Evans (I wanted him to win too!)
