Description
Copenhagen is turning yellow just a few days before the start of the Tour de France. The annual race kicks off with an individual time trial in Denmark's capital on July 1, followed by two stages around the country. The Danes have long championed cycling, and Copenhagen has more than 250 miles of bike lanes, according to the Danish Foreign Ministry. The city's Lord Mayor says the sport is "more than just a way of transportation from A to B; it is a part of our DNA", and adds that kicking off the Tour de France signals a "big yellow party coming to Copenhagen".
