ooh la la! le tour de france!


                           











"there will be a lot of complaining that today was too hard, but the winners never complain."
phil liggett
tour de france commentator






"it was eleven more than necessary."
jacques anquetil
after winning a race by twelve seconds







 "the bicycle riders drank much wine, and were burned and browned by the sun.  they did not take the race seriously except among themselves."
ernest hemingway
 the sun also rises











"i thought of that while riding my bike."
albert einstein
on the theory of relativity








"the tour is simple to understand.  it's the race of the common people.  they can easily grasp the difficulties of the tour.  they can identify with the man in the yellow jersey and the man who drops out in tears."  
        bob roll            
 tour de france commentator




"it never gets easier, you just go faster."
greg lemond

    on a entirely different subject but it has pretty much the
    same page layout and design. Superb choice of colors!
