Daydreaming here...

I was referring to the Tour de France when I was saying this. Why there is not a Tour de France Womens Race.

Many years ago there was a Women's Tour de France. I can't remember when (and why) it was cancelled, but I just did some Google searches, and it looks like there is again a multi-stage women's tour in France called Grande Boucle Féminine Internationale. Based on the sites that I could find - if I'm reading them right, that is - it is a one-week race that finished on July 3rd. Better than nothing...

Here's the link to the web site in French: http://velo-feminin.com/. And here's the link to the web site as translated by Google into English. I have no way of knowing if the translated page will be updated, so it's probably best to get to that page the way I did - search on Google for "La Grande Boucle Féminine Internationale", then click on translate this page instead of clicking directly on the web site.
