You Tube Does The Tour de France — Nice!

I wish I’d come across this earlier in the Tour de France. But there are still three days left in the race’s 95th edition, so as the saying “better late than never.”
You Tube has a Tour de France channel and there are a lot of cool videos to check out and share.
I think VERSUS is about to conclude its best year of covering the race, but it can’t be everywhere, which is what makes the You Tube stuff compelling.

There are maps of each stage, for example. And after Carlos Sastre’s solo win to L’Alpe d’Huez in stage 17, there was a nice interview with the veteran Spanish rider who may emerge as the overall race winner this year.
There are a lot of Tour de France junkies out there, and what better way to get another fix in the final three days — or even when the Tour is over?
