Motorhomes are lined up along a road near Meymac (Corrèze), with fans arriving early to secure viewing spots for the Tour de France stage. Two retired couples from Pas-de-Calais and Yonne met at the Grand Bornand stage in 2018 and have met every summer since. They plan their route using the Tour's official guide, call each other, and travel by motorhome, combining their hobby with discovering new regions of France. This year, they are concerned about rising fuel prices.
