Tour de France 

The most popular cycling event in the world. It has been held in France every summer since 1903 (excluding the years of 1915-1918 and 1940-1946 due to the World Wars). The race has a current traditional length of about 3 weeks, and falls in the month of July. The rider do not race for three weeks straight, of course. They race one stage a day, with two rest days stratigically placed within the race schedule to give the riders ample time to recover. Each stage is usually around 100 miles or so. Among the most famous riders to win the tour are the Big Five. These are the five men who have won the Tour five times (or more). These men are: Jacques Anquetil (1957, 1961-4), Eddy Merckx (1969-72, 1974, Bernard Hinault (1978-9, 1981-2, 1985), Miguel Indurain (1991-5), Lance Armstrong (1999-2005). All of the above men won the tour just five time except Lance Armstrong, who won seven times in a row. The overall leader of the Tour wears the notorious "maillot jaune", or "yellow jersey". Other special jerseys include the polka dot jersey, given to the best climber, the green jersey, won by the best sprinter, and the white jersey, which is awarded to the rider under 23 years of age who is highest in the overall classification.
The Tour de France is awesome!

tour de wawa 

Similar to the tour de france, except without bikes and without Lance Armstrong. Also, without France. This tour is set in a Northeastern United States area, preferably Pennsylvania or New Jersey, where WaWa is located. You must travel from WaWa to WaWa, buying at least one thing at each. To be considered a full tour, you must go to at least five WaWa locations. tour de wawa is practiced mostly by bored high school students who recently got their licenses, but have no where to go.
What are we going to do tonight?

Well, I need water, cigarettes, gum, coffee and a hoagie.

Do you have the car?

Yep!

Sounds like a tour de WaWa to me!

tour of dural 

To get out of bed, nip out to the back lawn in your dungarees, have a quick tinkle, and scuttle back under the covers, only to realise you've now got lawn clippings at the bottom of the bed and a damp spot on your jocks.
BT lay alone and morose with nothing to soothe his pain but memories of happier days and the residue of a Tour of Dural.

Tour de Twat 

A woefully incompetent species of cyclist, only seen on the roads during and in the weeks immediately following the Tour de France. Easily identifiable by his Team Sky shirt and shiny new bike; the Tour de Twat is empirical evidence that the old saying "it's just like riding a bike" is either incorrect or misapplied.
I saw a Tour de Twat on the way to work the other morning, sheltering under a tree from the rain so his bike didn't get wet: the fucking pansy.

Some guy: What does it take for me to become a member of Tour Nome?

Cool Guy: More then you can handle, unfortunately...
