  • 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.

Also Present: Honorary Aldermen Audrey Jones and John Smith. CC/08/82 Death of Councillor Neil Trafford The Lord Mayor formally recorded the sudden and tragic death of Councillor Neil Trafford as a result of a road traffic accident on Sunday 23 rd November. The Council recalled that Neil had served as Liberal Democrat Councillor for the Barlow Moor and Didsbury West Wards since 2003. He was an active Committee member and an acccomplished political campaigner across the North West of England. The Lord Mayor said that the generous tributes paid to him in public forums and numerous websites in recent days was perhaps the clearest testimony to the very high regard in which he was held in many different fields of activity. In a short life she said that he had clearly achieved much and members were left to wonder what more he might have contributed in the future.
