Details of next summer’s cycle race have been released and it will be an exciting 
time for people in Marseille as the time-trial, or contre-la-montre, will take place in the city on July 22nd. This is when riders set off at 3 minute intervals to do a big loop, racing not against each other but against the clock. They ride in reverse order, so the leaders go last. It’s a vital step before the final in Paris which is the following day.
The other opportunity to see the Tour is July 21st when they will be racing from
Embrun to Salon. Even if you aren’t a cycling fan, make an exception for this one – it’s such a carnival!
