The renowned cyclist Bernard Hinault aims to compete in the upcoming Tour of America. Road races on highways are noted for their 10 speed bicycles and challenging routes.
The three day event from April 8 covers 275 miles from Virginia Beach to Washington DC. It echoes the Tour de France format with stage races and clock racing where the lowest total time wins. Pro cyclists prepare for the biggest U S biking event in over five decades.
