Default Tour De France In July . . . And Chaos

About a year ago Boris Johnson and his henchmen caused traffic chaos in
London by staging a cycling event which closed several major roads and
crippled surrounding routes.

As a resident of Leyton, I have now received a leaflet from TfL, bearing
the
imprint "MAYOR OF LONDON", about the Tour de France Stage 3 - Monday 7
July 2014. If what this leaflet threatens is true, further traffic chaos
will be
caused.


Why it comes over here in the first place baffles me! Don't we have
enough of our own cycle races?

The clue is in the title - Tour of France. Does it invade other
countries bordering France?
