The Tour de France

Welcome to GICLIBI. 

The Tour de France is a well-known annual multi-stage road cycling event, mainly held in France, and often travels to neighboring countries such as the United Kingdom, Belgium, and Spain. The Tour de France, which began in 1903 and belongs to the UCI professional tour, is the oldest and highest level cycling event in Europe, attracting a large number of global spectators every year. The competition was founded by Henri Desgrange, the editor in chief of Automotive News. The first Tour de France was officially held on July 1, 1903. French athlete Maurice Galin became the first Tour de France champion.

Since its establishment in 1903, the Tour de France has become one of the most popular cycling races in European and American countries. Every year, it attracts over twenty teams from around the world and more than 200 athletes to participate.

Since 1903, it has been held annually in the summer, with a duration of 23 days and a total of 21 stages, covering an average distance of over 3500 kilometers (approximately 2200 miles). The complete schedule varies from year to year, but mostly revolves around France. In recent years, before the end of the competition, it has always crossed the Champs - É lys é es in the center of Paris and passed by the Eiffel Tower. The competition is divided into many segments, from one town to the next, with each segment timed and ranked separately. The total score of each contestant is determined by the accumulation of all scores. The champion is the one who accumulates the least in each period of time. At the end of each day's race, the leader will be able to wear a yellow collared riding shirt, the best sprinter will be given a green cycling jacket, and the best knight in the mountain race will receive a polka dot sports jacket, sometimes referred to as the king of the mountaintop.
