Every year Tour De France is pretty much the only major cycling event that I watch. I was drawn to it just by the sheer aura that surrounded one man called ‘Lance Armstrong’. It is amazing how a sport can be promoted by an individual and how a sport makes money off an iconic performer as much as the performer makes from his sport. Men like Tiger Woods, Michael Jordon, Lance Armstrong, David Beckham and Sachin Tendulkar draw a ‘casual fan’ into the sport and make it appealing to them.
But we are not talking here about the men who redefined sporting greatness, but we are going to talk about a piece of equipment that must have helped one of them on their way to glory. Every year Tour De France attracts plenty of attention, both good and bad. But now you can feel like a rider in the race by owning a road bike which was ridden this year by eventual winners like Rasmussen and Alberto Contador. You can also dance on the pedals of the new “Trek Madone 6.9” which was driven by the team Discovery riders in the event. It is the same bike as used by the riders in the race. So you can also now get on the perfectly shaped super fast bike and ride away to your destination on this state-of-the-art technology. Of course, this is no ordinary road bike on two wheels and so it comes at no less $7700. Ok, I’m sorry; it does come at a lesser price - at $7699.99. Well, you at least save something!
