Christian Prudhomme's comment
It
appeared that the Champs-Élysées avenue had found its master in Mark
Cavendish, winner on four occasions of one of the most prestigious
sprints of the season. But the triumphant power of Marcel Kittel on the
last two visits has maybe marked the beginning of a new era. Paris is
still to be conquered.A parade in the rain. I can't remember the last time it rained for this stage.
First, a happy sight from yesterday, as injuries at all, Adam Hansen has made it to Paris.
I love to finish the 2nd last stage on alpe d'huez. Such a tough historical climb..... & maybe the free beers :P pic.twitter.com/2IV054hCMy

An announcement from the race referees: Time will be taken after the riders cross the finish line the first time in Paris. Meaning that the sprinters will still contest the true finish, but the gc portion of the race will be long over.
☔💧☔💧☔💧
Decision of judges: the final time of #TDF2015 will be taken at the 1st crossing of the line on the Champs-Elysee at km 41. 🗼🗼🗼

Greipel's team is working hard already:

You guys know that Paul & Phil do the entire final stage broadcast from that giant carousel, right?

Five kilometers to go and they were all together. Nervous time for the sprinters. Greipel again! What a great race for him.

From FranklyWines
Frankly says: The Purest Decadence Ever to Cross Our Lips - Love love love this stuff. I'm a sucker for the deft balance of density and purity that this bottle pulls off. The base is 2009, which was a warm year, but Laval's prestine fruit makes for a bubbly that's not heavy. There's brioche and the wee-est hint of butterscotch, but the underlying core is all about minerals and purity. Buy. This. Now.
I say: This was just great. But Christy has not steered me wrong all Tour. I really couldn't do it without her.
The choice came down to chocolate mousse, K's choice versus croissants, my pick. How to decide? I asked the folks at Podium Cafe to vote. So our final food of the Tour: croissants. I admit to buying rather than making them because, well, Tartine is so close. Their recipe is available in their second cookbook, Tartine Bread. You can read here on TheKitchn what it is like to make them at home.
Note: I've promised to try this Food52 "Genius Recipe" for chocolate mousse from Hervé This very soon. The description makes me very curious: "
It took a brilliant, adventurous chemist to discover the simplest way to make chocolate mousse at home. Hervé This, the father of molecular gastronomy, discovered how to make a flawless, creamy chocolate mousse out of just chocolate and water."
