2011 Tour de France Complete Highlights

The route of the 2011 Tour had been determined with two objectives in mind: to set the pace from the beginning of the race and maintain suspense right up until the very end.

All the hard work pays off for a history making Cadel Evans!

Evans, a two-time runner-up, made history for Australia by becoming the first Australian to ever win the prestigious Tour de France!
