The 58th Tour covered 3,608 km from Mulhouse to Paris, crossing into Switzerland, West Germany and Belgium; its loosely figure-of-eight course required the race’s first air transfers, from Le Touquet to Paris and Marseille to Albi. The race became one of cycling’s great dramas: Luis Ocaña held a commanding lead before crashing out in a storm on the Col de Menté, allowing Eddy Merckx to secure his third consecutive Tour. Period advertisements and a cyclist vignette give the sheet vivid contemporary character.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53843356713307,"sku":"P-7-028452","price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/9583\/1643\/files\/P-7-028452a.jpg?v=1787236471"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.antiquemapsandprints.com\/collections\/la-voix-du-nord.oembed","provider":"Antiquemapsandprints.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
