Show Notes
This is your Squiz Kids Shortcut to The Tour de France—the podcast where we dive into the who, what, when, where, why, and how of big news stories.
They’ve been racing it for more than 120 years. It was started by a French newspaper to sell more copies. And riders pedal more than 3,000 kilometres across mountains, fields and cobblestones. In this Shortcut, we take you inside the world’s most famous bike race — from how the stages and teams work, to the meaning behind those colourful jerseys. We’ll uncover wild cheating scandals, high-tech gear, and the rise of the women’s race — the Tour de France Femmes. Plus, we celebrate the Aussie who made history. Strap on your helmet and get ready to ride!
