Racial Mix of the Tour de France

[White Shogun]

I've ran a few Google searches but haven't been able to come up with any information regarding the racial makeup of the riders in the Tour de France. It seems as though all the top riders are white.

Does anyone have any information on this?

If there is no blacks in the Tour de France it is because their inability to afford a bike. Hey, I'm just buying into the propaganda. Anyway, I couldn't find any info on this either.

All of the TDF riders are of European heritage. The only riders that are not European are American or Columbian.

Just to be picky SteveB, it's actually spelled Colombia. Sorry, it's just that I get these late night editorial cravings.

I wonder how some of these riders, espcially a guy like Lance Armstrong, would do in a marathon race. They did blood tests and determined he has unually high tolerance for lactic acid build up which explains his ability to perform exceptionally well in the Tour De France.

That's a good question Alpha Male. No doubt, it would help their chances of finishing well. They are both high endurance sports.
