Sports events. Football, Wimbledon, Tour de France
This and next month are rich in sports events. There are many sports transfers on our TV screens. I’m not sure that our wives are satisfied. They prefer the movie series.
I personally watch soccer occasionally. When Serbia plays then I’m in front of the screen.

I look at giants in Vibeld, Nadal, Federer, Djokovic etc.

Still I am eagerly waiting tour de Franse.
Tur de Franse has a rich history and tradition.

The first race was held far back in 1903. With Giro d’Italia and Vuelta a Espanya, it’s still the only grand race.
On the race we participate the best teams. The winner of the race gets a yellow shirt and the last day of the race with her triumphantly enters Paris where the end of the race.
I will mention only some of the best bikers in the world who have won the Tour. Edi Merks, Bernard Ino. Greg Lemond, Lens Armstrong, Alberto Kontador, Kris Frum, Migel Indurain etc.
Just to explain why I like to watch this race.
I have never been to France. I do not have the opportunity to leave.
And so while the race lasts, and the cyclists are racing I am watching France. I’m watching its natural beauty, cities, old abbeys, castles and the Alps.
In doing so, I find out everything about it, because the commentator is a tourist guide.
It’s the same with Giro de Italy and Vuelta, a race around Spain.
Thank you for sharing this wonderful post.
Thank you very much Branka.
Though I am not that interested in sports I too enjoy the Tour de France for the reason getting to see the country and hear from the guide.
By the way, the photo you used for this post is stunning!
Thank you very much for the race when you ride through the Alps and the Pyrenees have wonderful snowflakes.
Lepo i zanimljivo Robin!
Thank you very much Snezana.
I also find myself being right there when I am into a sport, like football.
Thank you very much Carol.Looking at Tur de Franse, I have the opportunity to see France and find out something.
The race lasts for three weeks and has enough time to see and learn.
That race sounds very exciting to watch.
I edit Tourism-related material, with a great many of the theses and dissertations that I edit being about FIFA. I’m even down to watching a bit of some games now – not too bad!!
Thank you for your visit. Take a bit of the tourism and these great sporting events.
Do you know how many tourists come to Paris on the last day of the race?
I can only imagine! Hope they don’t leave any bodies in their wake…
This year, everything ended super, except for a couple of injuries and bicycle riding.
Soon…
Glamour and glory abound at King George Day. This is Ascot’s midsummer prestige event and its showpiece race The King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes (sponsored by QIPCO) has long been regarded as Europe’s premier midseason middle-distance championship race for horses of both sexes and all ages.
Thank you very much my friend.
Kod Engleza upravo završen čuveni “Royal Ascot”, trke konja, drugi najpopularniji sport u Engleskoj, pa i u Irskoj. https://www.ascot.co.uk/horse-races-and-events/king-george-vi-weekend/saturday
To keep tracking from time to time. I was 300 meters from the Belgrade Hippodrome and I hung there every week. So I loved horse and horse racing.
