  • CYCLING LEGENDS Autoworld in Het Thema Van De Tour De France!
    Persbericht Van 20 juni tot 25 augustus 2019 Autoworld - Brussel Stelt voor CYCLING LEGENDS Autoworld in het thema van de Tour de France! Deze zomer maken we een bijzonder moment mee: de Ronde van Frankrijk vertrekt dit jaar in Brussel! Om dit te vieren, organiseert Autoworld naast de expo over het honderdjarige bestaan van het merk Citroën, een unieke terugblik, waar u alles komt te weten over de geschiedenis van het wielrennen en zijn legenden, van het prille begin in 1819 tot nu. Wist je trouwens dat de hal van het jubelpark, waarin Autoworld nu gehuisvest is, in 1902 het toneel was voor het Auto – en fietssalon? Een ongewone tentoonstelling Omdat de Ronde van Frankrijk dit jaar in Brussel vertrekt, denken we ook terug aan de eerste zege van de grootste wielerkampioen aller tijden: Eddy Merckx. Wist u trouwens dat de gele trui dit jaar ook 100 jaar bestaat? Wat alles extra magisch maakt, is het feit dat Eddy Merckx het record draagt voor de meeste dagen in het geel tijdens de Ronde van Frankrijk. Hij heeft de felbegeerde kleur maar liefst 96 dagen lang gedragen. Dit legendarische stukje wielergeschiedenis komt tot leven in de tentoonstelling 'Cycling Legends', die verdeeld is in drie hoofdthema's: * 200 jaar verhalen over de grootste kampioenen (1819 – 2019), * de galerie over het honderdjarige bestaan van de gele trui (1919 – 2019) * een deel dat exclusief gewijd is aan de grootste Belgische kampioenen (1919 – 2019). Bereid u alvast voor op een golf van emoties wanneer u de fietsen, uitrusting en trofeeën van tal van kampioenen met eigen ogen ziet, naast een collectie zeldzame oude posters, historische documenten en andere interessante stukken.

  • Tour De France
    Tour de France The Tour de France is the world’s most famous, and arguably the hardest, cycling race. It takes place every year and lasts for a total of three weeks, covering almost 3,500km. History of the Race During the late 19th century, cycling became a popular hobby for many people. As time went on, organised bike races were introduced and professional cycling became very popular in France. On 6th July 1903, 60 cyclists set off on a race and covered 2,428km in a circular route over six stages. 18 days after setting off, 21 of the original 60 cyclists made it back to the finish line in Paris. The winner was Maurice Garin and the Tour de France was born. Except for war time, the race has taken place every year since then and has become more challenging with the addition of mountain climbs and longer distances. The Modern Tour de France Each year, the tour begins in a different country. The route changes annually too, though usually finishes on the Champs-Élysées in Paris. In 2019, the race starts in Brussels, Belgium on the 6th July and ends in Paris on the 28th July after 21 stages totalling a distance of 3,460km. There are 22 teams taking part in the Tour de France, each with eight riders. The reigning champion is Welsh cyclist Geraint Thomas.

  • Doping Critics Hack Computers for Chris Froome Data
    Doping Critics Hack Computers For Chris Froome Data Team Sky boss Sir Dave Brailsford has revealed that critics of Team Sky have hacked into the performance data of Tour de France leader Chris Froome. Sir Dave Brailsford said he believes data has been stolen by team©s critics to discredit the performances of Froome and raise doping suggestions. The Team principal added we think someone has hacked into our training data and got Chris' files, so we've got some legal guys on the case there. On Monday evening, a video that purportedly showed the ride of Froome on Mont Ventoux during the 2013 Tour with data on speed, heart rate, power, and cadence overlaid was removed from YouTube. Viewers of the video took to social media for interpreting the data and many suggested that there was evidence of doping. Froome had previously expressed his frustration ahead of the Tour of "clowns" trying to interpret power data. Chris Froome was leading the 2015 Tour de France by 12 seconds on the first rest day in Pau. Froome recently produced a ride to conquer stage 10 of the Tour de France and increase his overall lead to nearly three minutes. Froome - who led by 12 seconds overnight - broke away with 6.4km left of the first summit finish of the 2015 Tour de France to win in La Pierre-Saint-Martin. BBC Sport©s Matt Slater remarked this was a devastating win for Froome and Team Sky, with Grand Tour champions and challengers scattered all over the road up to La Pierre-Saint-Martin.

Froome, one of the world's leading and most popular cyclists, won the Tour de France in 2013 and has also won the Tour of Oman, the Tour de Romandie, came second in the Vuelta a Espana, and won Bronze in the 2012 Olympic Games Time Trial. Froome was also Velo Magazine International Cyclist of the Year: 2013. He is one of the hot favourites in this year’s Tour de France. Froome, who wore the Turbine during the first Stage of this years Tour commented: "It’s a great piece of equipment. Less energy and distraction with breathing means I can use more energy in other important parts of my riding, like focussing on power, cadence and keeping my head in the game." Rhinomed CEO Michael Johnson said: “We met Chris when he started wearing the Turbine™ in last years Vuelta a Espana, and have been building a strong relationship since that time. Chris provided extensive input and data into the new Turbine™ design and we are thrilled to have now locked in this long-term relationship.” Murdoch University in Western Australia are currently undertaking a confirmation trial on the new Turbine™.
