EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the exhilarating start of the prestigious Tour de France cycle race at Champigny-sur-Marne in 1947. The Tour de France, one of the oldest and most prestigious cycling races in the world, was first held in 1899 and covers a total distance of 2291 km over the course of eight days, including a rest day. The race, which takes place annually in July, is steeped in history and tradition, attracting millions of spectators and participants from around the world. In this image, we see the riders ready to embark on their grueling journey, with the motorbike escort leading the way. Motorbikes have been an integral part of the Tour de France since the 1930s, providing essential support to the riders by carrying spare parts, water, and other essentials. The presence of the motorbikes also ensures the safety of the riders by clearing the way of any obstacles and alerting them to any potential hazards on the road. The start of the race is always a thrilling spectacle, with the tension in the air palpable as the riders prepare to set off at a blistering pace. The crowds of spectators, waving flags and cheering on their favorite riders, add to the excitement of the occasion. The Tour de France is not just a test of physical endurance but also a celebration of the rich history and culture of cycling in France and beyond. This photograph captures the essence of the race, with the riders poised to take on the challenge of the course and the motorbike escort leading the way.
