Prison perks

I’ve thought it would be pretty cool to ride some of the infamous category climbs and sunflower-lined routes that the Tour de France follows every July. 

Well, little did I know that a forced stay in a French prison may just be the ticket to this living that adventure.  194 prisoners, along with 124 guards and prison sport instructors, are doing just that.  Following a route beginning June 4th, they will be stopping in 17 towns (each of which has a prison), but everyone will be staying in hotels.

Not surprising I guess, but there will be no breakaways allowed!

Curious to see what they’ll wear…orange jumpsuits or striped jerseys?
