The Tour has frequently gone into other countries for a day's racing, to sort of throw a bone to fans in said countries. Its been into probably every neighboring European country, the UK, and almost to Canada, but that one was scrapped because the riders didnt want to have to fly transatlantic and get jetlagged before the most difficult race in the world.
Ill post Stage 2 later tonight, I still havent gotten a chance to watch my Tivo'd footage.
