Revue Jour de repos
1.
A jolly German giant Kittel, Marcel
Has a coiffure which suits him well
Movie star locks and a mighty stroke
Marcel knows his swag is swell
He is also in on the joke
As at his hair we all fun poke
Marcel's strength makes him a brute
And yet his hairdo is so cute!
A man who proudly displays gel products
Can be excused for strength of ox
2.
Finally Le Tour de France
has some Frenchmen extant
Excellent work from Gallic born
shows France coming into form
Tony Gallopin of Belisol
wins stage 11 and thrills us all
He wore yellow on Bastille jour
Tony is having a merveilleux Tour
Ditto Pinot for FDJ.fr
Young Thibaut has come a long way
Strong in the mountains
an improving descender
He's proved to be an aggressive stage ender
He's always quick to come out and play
Especially with fellow Frenchman Bardet
They duel for supremacy day by day
He is known for a strong TT
Will he battle it out with BMC?
Romain Bardet, 23
A natural rival for Pinot, T
Both are French, fast and young
as they strive for the podium
Let's not forget Jean Christophe Peraud
Sixth overall--On dit Chapeau!
Always working-- Pierre Rolland
For years he's been Frances' go to homme
For 25 plus years the French failed to score
But these young lads have success in store
The drought is broken for La Belle France
Our gracious hostess gets her chance
3.
With no Berto, Cav, Froomie, (nor Brad)
Some felt Le Tour was going to be sad
Now as 3lèm semaine starts
We've surely had a change of heart
Just as the weather
Each stage hard to predict
And yet a great contest has ended it
So many heroes emerging from Chaos
All the top riders are not such a loss
Not that we don't love them still
But this year's Tour has been a thrill
