you have to save military Type. Being a soldier on the Tour means diving daily into a war that has intensified this year for fear that French revolts will hamper the race; more policeof all colors, more fences and more restraints, so that sometimes you get as pissed off as a kid shows up with exams wanted.
I will give an example. You arrive at an apartment, park your car, sleep and find some the next day. fences that prevent you from going. First you have to convince the police on duty that you are here on business. please remove the fence, that you have an accredited car, that you are going in the opposite direction to the exit, and that you want to talk and greet the cyclists. Wrong way? Well, it will be no. Sorry with the church, it came up with Tur. Plaça de Verdun, the center of Pau, where the first Pyrenean stage began, is one kilometer and they make you make 20 detours to get there, because the city is cordoned off, fenced in, all the streets are closed, and even the mayor can’t get through. A drama, come on, a despair. Please save the Tour soldier!
we started the day badly
you are talking to someone local policewho laughs, who dares to speak perfect Spanish, who when he can’t, who tells you that you have arrived at the blessed Plaza Verdún through a street, and even between French and Spanish, Verdún represents the soul of the country. as resistance in the First World War.
We started the day bad, so bad, so much pau it would be hell, it would be impossible to reach that exit where you are a kilometer away from home, you see it but you don’t touch it. Desperate, give up exit and decide go directly to the target it’s only 40 kilometers away by short route, without having to exit the ports, which represents a 50-minute journey as the road plays locally. I wish it was so!
to the target
HE tour military He started his car at 9:45 am. Cyclists, one kilometer away from their shelters, arrive at the start area at 11:00. And the soldier finds himself in a labyrinth that he cannot get out of.
A gendarme tells him that if he pulls straight, he will reach Laruns. tour destination, in less than an hour. The soldier is happy, comes, checks the exit, and even thinks that he can climb the ladder because of time and a detour. Marie Blanche To see how the people are.

You must go back to Pau. Soldier, turn around.
Zero point of the tour
Pau is hell zero point tour, everything turned off again, such that Google Maps and Waze and let alone the car’s GPS went crazy. Nothing to do, a fence appears with each location in the browser, Go back until you think they’ve given the tour.

It would take you 12 minutes.
HE Tour is like a toothache The day everything comes together. You leave your apartment at 9:45 a.m. and nearly four hours later you miss the finish line, driving 40 kilometers, an epic battle that could win you a medal elsewhere. Ah! And with additional pain.
