Contador wins Tour de France
2007-07-29 23:31:00
Contador wins Tour de France World’s most famous cycling race was marred by several doping scandals               By-   Amin George Forji       Whenever we think of a cycling race in any corner of the world, one of the first things that immediately come to mind is inevitably the Tour de France. In place since 1903, the annual three weeks road-cycling race, traditionally covering a circuit of most areas around France, and occasionally some neighboring countries too, is in fact 104 years old. The 2007 race which lasted from July 7th to July 29, 2007, actually started in London, with over a million people lined up on the streets to get a rare glimpse of the Tour’s heroes.   The 2007 came to a close today Sunday, July 29, 2007 with Italy’s Daniele Bennati winning the final stage into Paris. But it was the 24-years old Spain’s Discovery Channel team rider, Alberto Contador who crossed the finishing line in front of Champs-Elysees as overall winner. H...
