Film Synopsis

François is an avid fan of the Tour de France.  Having lost his job and then his wife he enters the cycle competition with a day's lead on the professionals.  First he is alone, but soon he is joined by others, inspired by his example.  As news of François's exploits spreads he is cheered by the crowds, to the annoyance of the tournament leader.  François must be stopped at any cost!
