Watch the Tour de France Online
Catch one of the greatest races on the planet when you watch the Tour de France online in 2011. Running from Saturday July 2 to Sunday July 24, 2011, the 98th Tour de France will be made up of 21 stages and will cover a total distance of 3,471 kilometres.

- - le Galibier climbed twice,
- 2 rest days,
- 23 level 2, 1 or highest level mountain passes or summit finishes,

The Tour de France is THE race that tries men's souls. Although Lance Armstrong makes it look easy, if you are to watch closely, you can see that it is far from easy. And he did it with a little help from his friends; he got by with a little help from his Team Discovery Channel. Still, in the end a man who rides the talk, competed and did the seemingly impossible.
A Grand Start Between Sky And Sea
The official start of the 98th edition of the Tour de France will take place at the Passage du Gois. Linking the continent to the island of Noirmoutier, and measuring 4.5 km in length, the Passage du Gois is a submersible road covered twice daily at high tide, but which remains fully accessible at low tide. The starting ceremony will take place in Fromentine followed by a parade along the island of Noirmoutier.
