The Tour De France is around the corner and we have everything you need to know about the cycling tour.
As one Grand Tour comes to a close, anticipation for the next builds. The countdown to the 2022 Tour de France has officially begun, so jump on board and start making your predictions and hot takes now, before everyone else does.
The Grand Départ in Denmark was originally scheduled for last year but was postponed because of the epidemic. That may have been disappointing at the time, but it means that three Danish stages will be packed with fans.
Plus Because Danish cycling is prospering right now, a slew of the world's greatest riders will be vying for stage wins and the chance to wear the yellow jersey at home — a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
