For its entire history, the Tour de France has been an event steeped in heroism, intrigue and controversy. Valiant cyclists such as Coppi, Anquetil, Merckx, Hinault and Indurain have all become riders of legendary acclaim, while the likes of the Festina team and, of course, Lance Armstrong, all plummeted from grace when their organised doping inside the Tour was exposed.
The makers of Procycling magazine span the decades, celebrating the pioneers, heroes and winners and examining the rogues and controversies in-depth. We also look ahead to what the future holds for this great race, starting with the hundredth Tour in 2013.
