	The Tour de France 2002: Le Mont Ventoux
		It was Friday the 13th 1967 when former World Champion Tom Simpson tried started a desperate escape at the 'Mont Ventoux', maybe the most mythical mountain of the Tour de France, to defend his 'maillot jaune'.
		The swaying style of the cyclists, climbing up the mountains of the Tour de France, is a core component of the realisation of the motive of a racer in his struggle for winning at the 'Mont Ventoux', a figure whose name could be Tom Simpson, but not necessarily needs to be.
		Though the Mont Ventoux is not stage for the 2001 edition, the 'Mont Ventoux' is a symbol for this most famous bicycle race of the world.

	VeloNews: 2003 Tour de France Special Coverage
		From 1904 to 1967, the finish was in the Parc des Princes (from which the track was removed and replaced by a soccer pitch); there followed seven years at the smaller Piste Municipale velodrome at Vincennes; and starting in 1975, the finish was transferred to the Champs-Élysées.
		Rain showers and cool temperatures won't dampen spirits in Paris Sunday when the Tour de France not only sees the conclusion of this year's race but also celebrates its 100 years of history with a spectacular show on the Champs-Élysées.
		The stage itself evokes the 1903 Tour, with its start in Ville d'Avray, where the inaugural race finished prior to a ceremonial arrival at the Parc des Princes velodrome.

	Catholic Community Forum Discussion Groups - Challenge your Faith with the Da Vinci Code
		Furthermore, contrary to public opinion, the Merovingians are not extinct but have surviving descendants still alive, the last of which in 1967 was Pierre Plantard, who was therefore the only true contender to the role of King of France (of course, under the improbable case of a restoration of the French monarchy).
		According to Les Dossiers secrets de Henri Lobineau (which, incidentally, is a name invented by the same Three Musketeers), the legitimate heirs to the throne of France to this very day are still the Merovingians, dethroned in 751 by the Carolingians.
		Anyway, the Priory of Sion founded in 1956 at Annemasse in a sense still exists today, as a tiny organization within the larger subculture of esoteric societies of France.

		Simpson was the first British rider to wear the yellow jersey in the Tour de France and the only Briton ever to win the professional world road race championships, Milan-San Remo, the Tour of Flanders and the Giro di Lombardia.
		Simpson's drive and ability to ride himself into the ground was another factor in his death, as was the woeful state of athletic science in cycling at the time.

	William Fotheringham: Comment on Tom Simpson Who Died in France in 1967
		When her father Tom, Britain's greatest ever cyclist, died there from heat exhaustion caused in part by his use of amphetamines 35 years ago in the Tour de France, Joanna was four.
		The Simpson story has been told again every time the Tour has revisited the Ventoux, and when I began researching a biography of him I was often asked whether it was worth telling again.
		It is even feared by the triple Tour winner Lance Armstrong, who begins his try for a fourth consecutive win in the great race this Saturday.

	Articles - Charles de Gaulle
		Outraged, the Government of Canada under Prime Minister Lester Pearson, a soldier who served in World War I and a Nobel Peace Prize winner, cancelled the remainder of De Gaulle's tour and he returned to France where he was also heavily criticised by a large part of the French media.
		Harshly criticized by English-speaking Canadians and the Canadian government for this unprecedented breach of diplomatic protocol, it was seen by many Canadians as an insult to the thousands of Canadian soldiers who twice fought and died for the freedom of France.
		In July 1967, de Gaulle visited Canada, celebrating the centennial of its existence as a nation with a World's Fair known officially as Expo '67.
