Bienvenue à tous, e Buongiorno a tutti! 

Did you know that the Tour de France started as a commercial stunt to sell more (yellow!) newspapers? And that the first editions did not have any mountain stages? 

In this episode, we dive into the history of the Tour de France. We speak about the origins, the most iconic winners and in what sort of era’s the Tour can be divided.  Present at this episode: Miguel, Pablo and Vincent. 

----- 
For the first time in history, the Tour de France starts in Italy - and Le Grand Depárt is from our beautiful Firenze. To make sure that you can enjoy this special cycling occasion, you can listen this summer to Radio Tour de France, which is produced in the studio of Radio Cavolo. 

We, a group of “ciclisti amatoriali”, will discuss the basics of cycling, the history of the Tour de France and we will dive into this year’s edition.
