And yet the accusations keep coming. How much scrutiny can the two-time Tour de France winner stand? by Michael Hall In May of last year, Lance Armstrong was riding in the Pyrenees, preparing for the upcoming Tour de France. He had just completed the seven-and-a-half-mile ride up Hautacam, a treacherous mountain that rises 4,978 feet above the French countryside. It was 36 degrees and raining, and his team's director, Johan Bruyneel, was waiting with a jacket and a ride back to the training camp. But Lance wasn't ready to go. "It was one of those moments in my life I'll never forget," he told me. "Just the two of us. I said, 'You know what, I don't think I got it. I don't understand it.1 Johan said, 'What do you mean? Of course you got it. Let's go.' I said, 'No, I'm gonna ride all the way down, and I'm gonna do it again.' He was speechless. And I did it again." Lance got it; he understood Hautacam—in a way that would soon become very clear.

  • Vladimír Bačík, Michal Klobučník
    History of Tour de France from the geographical point of view Vladimír Bačík, Michal Klobučník Abstract The Tour de France, a three weeks bicycle race has a unique position in the sports world. In 2013, even the 100th year of this prestige event will be held. Over almost 110-year history, people could notice unique stories and duels in particular periods, which the sports world will never forget, and celebrities that became legends, and many others. Also many places where the races took place entered the history of Tour de France. Our attempt in this article was to point out the spatial context of this event using advanced technologies for the purpose of distribution of historical facts on the Internet. The introductory part characterizes briefly the attendance of particular stage centres from a regional point of view. This part was a sort of entry into the main topic dealing with selected historical aspects of difficult ascents which decide every year on the winner of Tour de France, and also attract fans from all over the world to races taking place on French roads. At the final stage of research, the distribution of results on the website available to a wide circle of fans of this sports event played a very significant part (www.tdfrance.eu). Using advanced methods and procedures we have tried to capture the historical and spatial dimensions of Tour de France in a general form and thus offer not only to the expert community a new view of this unique sports event. Introduction Worldwide in different corners of our planet, as well as in different sports branches global events are organised.
