The Tour de France is "flying" through Belgium







Stage two of Tour de France is a 168.5km stage from Dunkerque to Gent in Belgium. (that's about 102 miles. I'm doing the math in my head - ouch)

The average speed for the second hour of racing is 46.3 km/h - that's about 28.5 mph.

28.5 miles per hour!!!

P.S. This morning I averaged 18 mph on my little 18 mile ride. Not too shabby for a 45 year old guy. Tye out.
