The athleticism, the captivating, pulse-raising excitement, the camaraderie and the competition, all framed by the soft French countryside with its quaint towns and vineyards, is the perfect celebration of the sun\u2019s return. So there\u2019s something terribly wrong about the fact that many of us, due to the unfortunate lack of summer vacation in the professional world, must watch the taped footage of this epic race indoors in the evening after work. <\/span><br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/alleynetworkproject.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/Tour-de-France-5x7_website-post2.jpg\" style=\"clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" height=\"228\" src=\"http:\/\/alleynetworkproject.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/Tour-de-France-5x7_website-post2.jpg\" width=\"320\" \/><\/a><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<div style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\">This is precisely why the Bicycle Alliance, along with the International Sustainability Institute, the Metropolitan Improvement District, and a slew of neighborhood sponsors, are bringing the Tour de France outside, to the Nord Alley!
