My Wife and I are planning to attend the 2007 Tour de France prologue and stage 1 in London, then take the Chunnel to France for a few weeks of following the Tour, etc. Where would we have the better views, etc. We plan to take in all a ambiance.

  • Watch out as the french drive on the wrong side of the road[:D] It should be great especially in france,theres loads turn up for amateur races there never mind the tour.Enjoy it,mind the chunell is awful
  • Thanks for the advice, campagchris. We drive on the'wrong' side as well, though the French do it with more consideration to cyclists than most here in the states.

    Why is the chunnel so awful? Discovery Channel runs programs proclaiming it to be the eigth wonder of the world. Is that only for the English half? Does it suddenly worsen as you get half-way through, into the French part? Just curious, as I've enjoyed the roads in France.

    momentarily from the herd and thinks for himself.

    Serioulsy.

    I've now started on the Ricard, so things are going a bit fuzzy in my head, but what the feck is going on here? Its like Back to the Future but without a De Lorean or a subsequent Irish economy boost bolstered by non existent assets or wealth and just loads of people going on about the craic, how Guinness is best in Dublin and how the atmosphere and O'Reilly's Irish bar in Swindon in brilliant.

    So much like today really.......
