What is the name of the cycling event held every year in France?

Just curious, but is this question for your French homework?

How many times has tour de France visited great Britain?

No, it is entirely held within France. Many of the team may visit and train in Great Britain prior to the race. *That is completely untrue! The Tour de France is NOT entirely held within France, and any true race fan would know that! In fact, this year they started out in the principality of Monaco (which is NOT in France). While it's MOSTLY in France, the race has also been in Spain, Belgium, Switzerland, Italy, Luxembourg, Germany, Ireland, the Netherlands and Great Britain. So to answer the question, YES the tour has visited Great Britain.

Did slade smiley train for the tour de France?

No. In order to compete in the Tour de France, one has to be a member of a professional cycling team, and there is no record of a "Slade Smiley". Moreover, the only American-based team in the 1993 Tour de France was Motorola. As you can see, Mr. Smiley was not on the team's official roster: It would thus appear that he not only did not actually ride the Tour de France but was in fact not even a member of a UCI professional cycling team at any point in time.
