The first stage will be refueled at 104 kilometres, one of France's most famous wine regions. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the Tour de France in World War I, athletes often had to ride for four or five hours in a row, and it was certainly impossible to ride down a distance of nearly 200 kilometers without eating or drinking, and they had to maintain an average speed of more than 40 kilometers, which no athlete could bear.

So in the Tour de France, two or three of the team's nine competitors will definitely carry a special backpack with water bottles in it to provide water and energy for the other team members, especially the main player.

In addition to this, the Tour de France also has food supply stations, where the staff of each team will hand out the supply belts to the riders, and the staff of the race will also prepare food and water to hand to the riders in this area. In addition to the supply area, the Tour de France organising committee also has a special motorcycle that provides drinks, and riders can reach out for a drink whenever they encounter one of these motorcycles.

In addition, the surrounding spectators can also give food to the drivers, but no driver will accept food and water from strangers, and the race also specifically stipulates that if you eat something given by the spectators, you will not be responsible for any accidents.

In general, in the supply station area, the rider will not attack the opponent, which is an unspoken rule of the Tour de France, so in the supply area, the rider will also slow down, and his teammates will pass food and water to each other to replenish their energy.

Because of this feature, there will be a large number of spectators and reporters in the supply area, because in this stage, you can get closer to the drivers who are participating in the race.

At this time, in the supply area, both reporters and spectators are looking at the track in the distance, and they are looking forward to the arrival of the drivers.

"It's coming! It's finally here! ”

"Who's number one?"

"It's too far away, I can't see clearly, look at the clothes are the drivers of the Belgian Lotto team! It shouldn't be Gilbert, maybe it's Van den Brock? ”

The Belgian Lotto team staff immediately got busy, with one of them grabbing a supply belt and running to the side of the track, while another pulled out a large sign for players to come and receive supplies.

The staff of the other convoys around have moved out of the way, and at this time, it is convenient for them to be with others, and no one will make trouble.

"It's here!" The reporter raised his camera and aligned the lens, but the next moment, he exclaimed, "Why is there only one person?" ”

Only then did the others notice that there was indeed only one person coming from afar.

It is very rare for a person to lead the race in front, and the Tour de France is also a sport that requires teamwork, and a team does not need to send 9 riders if you are in charge, although it is the leader of each team who finally gets a good result, but it is also indispensable to help other riders, unless it is for sprint points or hill climb points, it is rare for riders to act alone.

The sprint point for this stage is at the 84km mark, and the riders have already passed that position, so this stage should be a test of teamwork, and there should be no one rider who can ride it alone.

After discovering that Zhang Guan was only one person, the eyes of the teams turned to the Belgian Lotto team.

The staff of the Belgian Lotto team were also unhappy, and one of them even complained: "Which guy rushed to the front by himself, doesn't he know that now is the time for team cooperation!" ”

Zhang Guan entered the supply area, he saw the sign held by the Belgian Lotto team from a distance, and the supply belt stretched out, but Zhang Guan did not come over, he knew that it was for the drivers of the Belgian Lotto team, maybe the food and water in each supply belt were assigned to a specific person, if he took it rashly, it might affect the tactical arrangements of the other athletes of the Belgian Lotto team.

There is a sign in front of the tournament that it is the public supply area of the tournament, with official staff providing food and water.

"Here! Over here! Oops, how did it pass! Didn't he see me? The staff member of the Belgian Lotto team kept waving, but found that Zhang Guanlian didn't pay attention to him at all and sped past him. Moreover, Zhang Guan's speed was so fast that the supply staff of the Belgian Lotto team did not even see Zhang Guan's appearance clearly.

"This is that guy, why don't you even want a supply belt!" The Belgian Lotto supply officer was surprised, and then he found that Zhang Guan had gone straight to the public supply area.

"What is he doing? Do you want to go to the public supply area to get supplies? Several of the Belgian Lotto team's supply crews looked embarrassed at the same time.

"Hehe, how did your team do it, the riders went to the public supply area to get something? You won't even have to save money on supplies, will you? Next to him, a man from the Belgian quick-paced team asked with a grin.

Quickstep and Lotto are both Belgian teams, and they are relatively familiar with each other, so they can afford to joke.

"Who's that guy? It's not that our convoy didn't provide him with supplies, why did he go to the public supply area to get something, what a shame it was! Now it has become the laughing stock of other teams! ”

"There's a number on the back, number 207, who is number 207, you have to ask him when you go back, what the hell is going on? Why didn't you take supplies! ”

"Is there a 207 in the Tour de France?" The supply officer from the Belgian quick-paced convoy next to him interjected.

After such a reminder, everyone remembered that there were only 198 people in each of the 22 teams in the Tour de France, and the driver's number was also worth No. 198, how could there be No. 207?

"This guy didn't deliberately pretend to be a racer to make trouble, right? After all, our team's uniforms and racing cars can be bought on the official website. One of the lotto supplies spoke.

"Impossible, didn't you see that the motorcycle in front of him was the official motorcycle, this can't be fake, if the No. 207 was here to make trouble, it would have been stopped by the official motorcycle, how could it help him open the way! And did you notice, the photographer's lens on the motorcycle has been pointing at the number 207. Another said right away.

"I remember! It's a guest! Aren't there ten guests this time? Theirs is No. 199 to No. 208, and the No. 207 just now is one of the guests! ”

"It turned out to be a guest, who is that?"

"Wearing the jersey of our Belgian Lotto team, it must be a crown! In order to get him to wear this outfit, our team spent 100,000 euros! A lotto team supply officer said proudly.

"No wonder it looks like an Oriental, I thought I was blind, it turned out to be Zhang Guan!" There was someone next to him who looked like an afterthought.

"But why is Zhang Guan here? Isn't he supposed to interact with fans in the back? How did you get to the front? Could it be that he is faster than the riders? ”

"The guests are faster than the drivers! Are you kidding me! ”

"Then how do you explain that Zhang Guan was the first to appear in the supply area?"

"Maybe the other riders are going the wrong way......"

As soon as the man finished speaking, he saw that on the horizon, a large group of men and horses had already sailed.

Obviously, the other riders didn't go the wrong way, they just slowed down a little bit......
