I just saw the Tour de France participants ride through the sweet harbor town of Paimpol, in Brittany, where one of my friends from grade school/high school lives with her British husband.

Head to this link to see the stages/daily schedule of the race: https://www.cyclingweekly.com/news/racing/tour-de-france/tour-de-france-route-192041

Stage 11/July 7 and Stage 12/July 8 will take you through some villages of the Luberon in Provence such as Isle sur La Sorgue, known for its antique markets and river running through it. Roussillon and Uzes are technically in the Languedoc-Roussillon region. Quite different from one another but so worth getting a look at, if you can.

The grand finale finish….well, Paris, of course! Stage 21-July 18th-the Champs Elysees! Here is the official site for this annual men’s race: https://www.letour.fr/en/

OK, so my bike photos are not quite Tour de France material but they are in Paris!
