For those of you keeping track of the Tour de France at work, we’re giving you another window to hide when the boss walks in.
Beginning with Saturday’s prologue time trial in Paris, VeloNews.com, in cooperation with AFP and Art Movies Inc., will be offering an INTERACTIVE FLASH MAP of Tour coverage to supplement our exsisting coverage of the Tour de France.
Rest assured, the graphics, bells and whistles are in addition to VeloNews.com’s already strong coverage. We’ll begin every day with live reports from the road by by our onsite editors. As soon as each stage is complete, we’ll have complete results, followed by a complete stage report. We’ll also have stunning photographs from Graham Watson and AFP, as well as daily tech updates from Lennard Zinn and Andrew Juskaitis. And be sure to check back for diary entries from Phonak’s Tyler Hamilton.
Our additional flash features offer web surfers interactive route maps, profiles and live tracking of the peloton during each stage. The accompanying results section will not only offer you complete results, but each rider’s statistics, including age, height, weight, professional history and Tour experience.
To take full advantage, you’ll need to have MacroMedia’s Flash Player installed on your system.
