the tour de france has ended! and in honor of the riders reaching the champs elysees after 2200 plus miles, another bike photograph from the archives.

it was a great tour this year – lance’s wrecks, the pave of roubaix, cav’s tears, renshaw’s head-butt, the wheel fight, schleck’s mountain wins, his defeat by chain drop, and contador in yellow. . . again!
