EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the grit and determination of the Tour de France riders as they make their ascent up the legendary Col de Tourmalet in the Pyrenees during the circa 1930s. The Col de Tourmalet, located in the French Pyrenees, is one of the most iconic climbs in the history of the Tour de France, with its steep and winding roads challenging even the strongest cyclists. In this image, a group of riders can be seen making their way up the mountain, their faces etched with concentration and effort. The rugged terrain and harsh conditions are evident in the rough, rocky road and the barren, rocky landscape in the background. The riders, dressed in their period attire, are transported back in time, offering a glimpse into the rich history of this storied race. The Tour de France, first held in 1903, is the world's oldest and most prestigious cycling race. The grueling multi-stage event, which covers thousands of kilometers and includes some of the most challenging climbs in Europe, has become a symbol of endurance and athleticism. This photograph, with its powerful imagery and historical significance, is a testament to the courage and resilience of the riders who have taken on the Tour de France over the decades. This photograph, from the Mary Evans Picture Library, is a must-have for any cycling enthusiast or history buff, offering a unique and captivating look into the past of one of the world's most iconic sporting events.
