Tour de France by Short Breaks

Saturday, 26th July sees the 2008 Tour de France reach it's final stage in Paris. After 22 days, and 20 stages, the road race that is usually run over more than 3,500 km (1,864 miles), comes to a climatic end.

The win on the Champs Elysees in Paris is the most prestigious for sprinters and their teams dial up the speeds to over 30 mph by the time they hit the bone jangling cobbles around the Place de la Concorde. From behind, the yellow jersey and other favorites roll safely to the line. Join the party on this special weekend with a city break to the spiritual home of cycling.
