I think we now all need special socks.....

Suddenly I just reversed your title: De-tour France, The

I'll be detouring France to avoid the race, for sure. Something racy happens around here. When I last checked. Which wasn't recently.

Reported local sightings of 25 Andy Gumps: possible bike race?

Winding narrow roadways without shoulders, yes the Bike Race.

My husband was in the ER with the bike wrecked guy. During his ex rays, this guy apparently already had numerous broken bones from past crashes....the doctors and nurses perplexed.

Socks are available free when you purchase The Cycling News Ultimate Tour De France Fans Guide! I now have 3 ( or possibly 4) pairs of Tour socks.
sadly there are no socks for the Tour of Spain so I will be free- styling with my usual pairs...:sluggish::thumbsup::thumbsup:
