The Tour de France -- pictures from the English stage 


The Tour de France has slipped into scandal this year, but the race that has captivated the world of cycling since 1903 -- originally conceived as an event only one cyclist would be able to finish -- began with a new twist this year, a prologue in London followed by an opening stage to Canterbury. A TigerHawk reader was there, and sent some great pictures. Run your cursor over the photos to read his captions.

Non-cycling blogging will resume shortly.

All the scandals notwithstanding, it is great fun to see a TDF stage up close and personal.

We will in all likelihood have an American -- Levi Leipheimer -- on the podium in Paris this Sunday. The only question left is what his placing will be.

Thanks for posting these pics, Tigerhawk.
