The advertising caravan starts two hours before each race stage
France - Each competition day at the Tour de France starts with the advertising caravan starting two hours before the stage and drives through the daily route. This caravan has become famous and is today a big part of the whole Tour de France. The sponsors decorate the caravan cars, vans and busses in funny and crazy ways. Along the route they distribute gifts, like the green PMU hand, caps and all sorts of gadgets.

The caravan also plays loud music and this year RCF speakers were fitted on several vehicles. The company La Cite Du Son-Sonowest from Rennes was responsible for the audio installation. Forty RCF Art 310 and C5212 speakers were installed in the vehicles.
