The 100th running of the Tour de France concluded today in the twilight on the Champs-Élysées in Paris. I can’t really vouch for any of the riders, but this has been the cleanest Tour to date (last year I listed my Top 5 Non-Doping Moments), with the exception that the French press is always looking for doping in any foreign rider who’s winning.

There were quite a few highlights, many more than 10, none-the-less here are my Top 10 moments from the 2013 Tour de France, in no particular order.

I am an avid cycling spectator. I enjoy all that the sport offers both on the road and on the track. This is a look inside why I enjoy the sport so much.

From Grand Tours, like the Tour de France to the Velodrome, it doesn’t matter where they are racing, just as long as there are two wheels and they are trying to go as fast as they can!

The 99th Tour de France completed it’s 3,496.9 km journey through Belgium, Switzerland and France, today. History was made with British rider Bradley Wiggins of Team Sky taking the final maillot jaune (yellow jersey) being the first of his country to do so, his teammate Chris Froome joined him 2nd on the podium, also a first. Another teammate of Wiggins, Mark Cavendish, also made history with his fourth straight victory on the Champs-Élysées.
