Tour Tidbit du Jour - 7/15/2009

The route of the Tour de France differs each year, but we know that certain regions are always included, such as the mountains of the Alps and the Pyrenees and the last stage always on the Champs-Elysees in Paris. What's also different each year is that the route circumnavigates France clockwise and counter-clockwise on alternate years. This year is an odd year, so the overall route goes clockwise.
