"Although have lived in France
since 2019, I haven't had the
opportunity to see the Tour de
France-spectacle.
When I saw that they would be
passing through 'my' Morvan last
July, I decided to go the the
small village of Glux-en-Glenne,
where the cyclists and the
publicity 'caravane' were due to
pass through in the early
afternoon. Having chosen a good
spot where I could see the cars
coming, I saw around thirty
Citroën cars - belonging so the
Police and press, some ambulances
as well as cars of companies that
are sponsors of le Tour 2021. Some
were only wrapped in the colour
scheme of the owner, but others
such as the Parc Asterix car were
real works of art, with a 3:1
scale fiberglass Obelix and
Astérix on the roof. Who said that
the C4 Cactus isn't a tough
cas? The Cochonou company,
renowned for their small sausages,
had nearly a dozen 2cv's in a red
and white scheme.
After nearly an hour, the cyclists
came. Down hill, passing by at at
least 40 mph. One really hopes
that they arrive safely at the
finish line."
