Female Tour de France 2012 LIEGE to Paris Cycling Team RÉVE
July 15, 2012 6 Comments
This is the REAL Tour de France, with no doping, true courage and love for cycling, no helicopters following them everywhere they go, no scandals of any kind: The LIÉGE TO PARIS.
I truly recommend you to pay a visit to their web page and follow their accomplishments. They are awesome! They are going to ride 3,472 kilometers in all and as of now, they have left the Alps behind!
The name of the team is RÉVE and I will be following them very closely, that is for sure.
This July, in partnership with peloton magazine and on behalf of Bikes Belong, we’re going back to France with six female amateurs intent on writing a new chapter in the annals of women’s cycling. The Rêve women’s team will ride the complete 2012 Tour de France route, proving to themselves, other female cyclists, and women thinking about taking up the sport, that any bicycle dream is possible. In true Rêve fashion they’ll ride one day ahead of the men’s Tour, stay in the same spartan hotels and endure the unrelenting grind of daily transfers that define the three-week journey around France. Every training mile and every kilometer in France will be pedaled in support of Bikes Belong. Bikes Belong is a national coalition of bicycle retailers and suppliers working to make cycling safer and more accessible for women. We aim to make a significant contribution to that purpose.
The Women’s SuperSix will feature the advanced ergonomics of FSA components, the latest SRAM Red with Quarq power meters we hope to share the data, and in the mountains, we’ll have the advantage of SRAM’s WiFLi climbing gearing. Understanding that no bike component is more important or personal than your choice of saddle the team will have the full benefit of Fizik women’s-specific technology under them.

Wow, just Wow, now that is sacrifice, courage, and being in great shape, Bravo!!!!
Certainly, Mish. I love these girls and what they are doing. Tomorrow they will be passed the Alps. I´ll blog about it.
Its amazing how many great athletes we have that go unoticed. In my club we have a former Veteran world champion mtb rider. In another club in my county we have a Veteran world champion cyclocross wider. However, they are not publicised, there are no TV cameras on motorcycles following them and you would not know them if you saw them on the street. That is the great thing about this sport though. It produces everyday heroes that the grass roots can appreciate. No doping charges, not sponsorship, just good, consistant athletes.
I am getting tired of all the doping and cheating going on. The real champions are the amateurs, the real heroes are you, Alex, your cyclists friends, all cyclists who go out everyday to work, compete, race locally, and we don´t get paid, we don´t cheat, we love cycling so much like these girls. Your comment is excellent. I absolutely agree
It usually passed word of mouth but isn’t that a little slow in the era of the internet. Moisture present in your finger can damage the electronic circuit. Should you prefer a mobile phone which is capable of doing everything, the palm treo smart phone is perfect for you.
