Ever wanted to see what it’s like to ride the Tour de France but have never had the stamina or appropriate drug dealers?

To celebrate the annual bike race’s 100th edition, Google has supplied us with a way to include us in the race, from a comfier seat, aka your couch.

Combined with Google Street View, YourTour puts you on the bike and behind the handlebars enabling you to pedal through various stages of the course, with a mere scroll of the computer. On your journey you can receive interesting facts about each portion of the race.

Your Tour’s About page reads:

Each scroll will let you explore the roads of the tour, taking you through content from Google Maps, Google Street View, Youtube and Google+,

What are you waiting for?
