Although the museum in the castle is neither technical nor cycling, it hides one a very interesting home made high wheel.

One of the most distinctive and most overlooked figures of lovers of historical bicycles in Italy. Unfortunately, he is no longer with us, but his museum is still maintained and recalls his love of cycling and the entire history of mostly racing cycling.

Château de Montfleury is a charming place and a magnificent castle. We must say about the part of the museum with historical bicycles: QUALITY, NOT QUANTITY, IS IMPORTANT. Many fakes, remakes, copies, failed imitations .... certainly not the right place for experts.

To celebrate the centenary of the yellow jersey, Tour de France organiser Amaury Sports Organisation (ASO) and the race’s jersey sponsor Le Coq Sportif have announced 20 individual yellow jerseys to be worn during the 2019 Tour de France.

As there is no race leader until the end of the Stage 1, the winner of the opening stage will be then presented with the specially designed stage 2 jersey to wear the following day. Unique images of significant buildings, locations and riders are faintly overlaid onto each of the yellow jerseys so as not to detract from the iconic colour with the first jersey presented featuring The Atomium building in Brussels.

With over 50 bicycles and tricycles, the Huron Bicycle Museum displays the evolution of the bicycle from 1817 to 1980 in 7 stages during which the technologies developed and adapted for cycles became ever more complex.

This Museum has Canada's most comprehensive cycle collection.

A Museum of cycling Technology was opened on Saturday, 3 August, 2019 in Kincardine, Ontario. If anyone would like to visit the museum, please contact Geography Professor Emeritus Glen Norcliffe (https://buff.ly/2M4lYCi)

Cycling is particularly well represented in the collections of the National Museum of Sport. Indeed, the museum proposes to find - in its course dedicated to the "Défi sur soi" - the history of cycling and many objects related to the Tour de France thanks to mythical bicycles as well as outfits that belonged to the greatest French cyclists!
