French prisoners get their own Tour de France
A select group of French prisoners will be given a rare taste of freedom next month when they are let out of jail to participate in their own Tour de France.
They will be accompanied by 124 guards and prison sports instructors. Close to 200 prisoners will take to the open roads as they cycle around France next month in the first penal version of the Tour de France, though they will be accompanied by scores of guards on bicycles.
The 196 prisoners will cycle in a pack and breakaway sprints will not be allowed.
They will be accompanied by 124 guards and prison sports instructors.
