Description
The Tour de France is the most famous and probably the most important road cycling race in the world. Along with the Giro d'Italia and the Vuelta a España, it is one of the Grand Tours.
Since 1903, the Tour de France has been held every year in July and follows a different route across France. The Tour de France is considered by many to be the third largest sporting event in the world after the Olympic Games and the Football World Cup.
A women's Tour de France, or Grande Boucle Féminine, was held intermittently from 1984 to 2009. Its length and importance were small compared to the men's Tour.
