    A couple of non-cycling friends have asked me recently why there are no women in the TdF, or why there is no women's equivalent. Does anybody know the answer?
    No women's stage race in France this year. There used be a race, but it funding problems. There are several stage races for women (you'll spot some listed in Cycling News), but about the only one for which I have coverage each year is the Giro Donne.

    PS: You can find some coverage for the Giro Donne in YouTube. For example, here's this year's stage 1.
