Here's one of the most important moments of the tour: drinking raids.
They enter a cafe, shoving everyone aside.
It isn't quite looting, but they demand and take anything; red wine, champagne, beer.
Even water, if there's nothing better.
Actually, they really should be drinking water.
Then they're off, usually without paying.
After the Tour de France, the director of the tour receives a number of bills.
Sometimes they lose two or three minutes and have to chase the pack for the next 20 km.
