There's no doubt that the Tour de France is the greatest bike race, if not sporting event, on the planet. With its iconic yellow jersey, terrain that is as challenging as it is breathtaking, and fervent French crowds both on the roadside and watching on at home, it is a race like no other.
However, selecting some of the Grand Tour's most iconic moments since its inaugural edition in 1903 is an altogether harder and more contentious undertaking. So much so that even Tadej Pogačar, who is expected to be lighting up the roads in France this July, which UK viewers can watch on TNT Sports and discovery+, didn't even make the cut.
