GrumpyOldGuy Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 Hmm, I think its a bit tongue in cheek, I wouldnt put too much faith in that comment. Although if they hold the prestigious Paris / Dakar in South America, I guess they can hold the Tour of France in Africa.!
CAAD4 Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 Rex we know you live in Parys.... but the TDF? Just like the excitement around F1 today. It is the 1st of April after all.
MTB_Roadie Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 then they can't call it tour de france anymore...doubt its true as the views from the current tour is spectacular!!
Tankman Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 on MTB's maybe ... through the desert on a road bike is gonna be foolish ... aprils foolish!!
RexFuzzle Posted April 1, 2011 Author Posted April 1, 2011 Glad tumbleweed appreciates my sense of humour. Caad4- what's wrong with Parys?
RexFuzzle Posted April 1, 2011 Author Posted April 1, 2011 I recon there should be a race like this though- it would be truly amazing, cross discipline between road and mountain, imagine. I imagine something like the Dakar Rally, but tougher. Imagine the likes of Stander and Contador battling it out together- would be super cool.
