After all, where else would have an official public body to protect the gender assignation of a sandwich, or fine one of its companies €500,000 for publishing a software manual in English only? (That public body is the Académie Française, and among other things it seeks to safeguard the French language from Anglicisation. You say email, it says courriel.)

  • Variante Bourg-Saint-Maurice / Saint- François-Longchamp Route Des Grandes Alpes® À Vélo
    http:www.francevelotourisme.com 07/05/2021 Variante Bourg-Saint-Maurice / Saint- François-Longchamp Route des Grandes Alpes® à vélo Voilà l’étape du col de la Madeleine (1993 m), point de passage mythique entre les vallées de la Tarentaise et de la Maurienne. Le col de la Madeleine est aussi très utile aux itinérants de Route des Grandes Alpes®, lorsque le col de l’Iseran, au-dessus de Val d’Isère, est encore fermé. Suggestion réservée aux explorateurs à (très) gros mollets : un long écart depuis Moutiers, via Brides-les-Bains, pour gravir le col de la Loze (2304 m), voie verte d’altitude entre Méribel et Courchevel. Ses ruptures de pentes incessantes parfois à plus de 20%, en ont fait l’une des arrivées les plus spectaculaires du Tour de France 2020. De Bourg-Saint-Maurice à Saint- Départ Arrivée François-Longchamp par le col Bourg-Saint-Maurice Saint-François- Longchamp de la Madeleine Durée Itinéraire Nord / Sud 5 h 20 min Distance 80,02 Km ↗ 2387 m ↘ 1629 m Niveau Attention, longue étape : 70 km et dénivelé total Ça grimpe Thématique supérieur à 2300 mètres. Pour commencer, descendez Montagnes l’Avenue Verte de Tarentaise, voie verte agréable et ombragée, jusqu’à Aime. Ensuite, nous vous conseillons d’emprunter, rive gauche, la petite route en balcon (D 88) par le col du Tra (1305 m) et Notre- Dame-du-Pré, afin d’éviter l’essentiel de la nationale très fréquentée. Depuis Moutiers, carrefour des 3 Vallées, rejoignez Aigueblanche, puis la station thermale de La Léchère-les-Bains, où vous entamez la longue ascension du col de la Madeleine (1993 m) : 1600 mètres de dénivelé sur environ 25 kilomètres.

  • 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.
