- The 2006 Tour de France was the 93rd Tour de France, taking place from July 1 to July 23, 2006. It was won by Óscar Pereiro following the disqualification of apparent winner Floyd Landis.
The Tour began with a prologue in Strasbourg, on the French-German border, and ended on Sunday July 23 in Paris. The distance of the course (run counterclockwise around France) was 3,657 km (2,272 mi). The race was the third fastest in average speed. Along the way, the cyclists passed through six different countries including France, The Netherlands (a stop at Valkenburg in Stage 3), Belgium (at Huy, Stages 3 and 4), Luxembourg (at Esch-sur-Alzette, Stages 2 and 3), Germany (though not stopping there, Stage 1) and Spain (Pla-de-Beret, Stage 11). The presentation of the course was made by the new director of Le Tour, Christian Prudhomme. For the first time since the 1999 edition, there was no team time trial.
The event, as with some of the Tours of the late 1990s, was marred by doping scandals. Prior to the tour, numerous riders - including the two favourites Jan Ullrich and Ivan Basso - were expelled from the Tour due to their link with the Operación Puerto doping case.
After the Tour, the apparent winner, Floyd Landis, was found to have failed a drug test after stage 17; Landis contested the result and demanded arbitration. On September 20, 2007, Landis was found guilty and suspended retroactive to January 30, 2007 and stripped of the 2006 Tour de France title making Óscar Pereiro the title holder. Landis appealed the decision to the Court of Arbitration for Sport which upheld the ban.

Beautiful stage by Landis!
The commentary is hilarious. I especially love the words of wisdom from Robbie Ventura. Also amusing is the nonchalant change to a motorized bike
Is it to or from? I can't figure it out, and no one else is talking about this suspicious bike change. Notice both bikes had the old Powertap rear hub, which is probably large enough to contain a motor.
@@BaxterRoss do you believe he doped motorized also?
I don't think even Pantani could have stayed with him on this day 😹
2006 best tour
it was one hell of a ride
Thankyou

I remember watching this on tv thinking this guy must by on drugs after this terrible day before...^^
11:55 That aged well
CSC or T-Mobile (though Kloden wasn't on a great day) should have sent someone forward on the Columbierre to assist Oscar's team, who had clearly burned all of their matches. They could have at least lost one minute less on that climb imo.
Kloden should have won. a better cyclist than Flandis.
landis must of really doped before this stage
I knew than that he had taken some dope.
"And most of all, he believes in himself. And that's what he's riding on; belief." That's all it was :)

Feel sorry for Cadel Evans 4th to 3 cheats ablation
Sure It’s obvious that Cadel was clean. 😂
He won his tour tho
@@YlL-ji2sl Are you saying Cadel was a cheat !
You don't have a clue !
@@jasonevans4291 Not sure whether your comment is ironic but of course he cheated. He won the tour against doped opponents and never complained when he lost the tour to convicted dopers.
But for me that doesn‘t take away those impressive performances of his.
They all are doping / even today 😏😏🥸🥸
