The new site will launch from the Tour de France and will feature behind-the-scenes insights from the race by exclusive columnist Bob Roll and timely tech reporting from Le Tour, as well as daily race reports and news updates from Roe and Tim Maloney, Road Bike Action European editor and images from cycling photographers Roberto Bettini and Yuzuru Sunada.
