Tour de France theme - RTE

qwert2

Hi. Do you remember the days when RTE used to show the tour de France live in the late 80s when Roche and Kelly where doing well? Can anyone remember the Theme music of the RTE coverage. I don't expect anyone to know the name of it, but perhaps someone may know who supplied the coverage to RTE? It was more than likely some French TV station

YES!!! I researched it last year but I can't find it right now. The programe at the time were brought by France 2 and 3 ( 'Antenne 2' and 'FR3' at the time.) I was able to trace it then... i am sure I can do it now ... watch this space

I have a vague memory that they did the obvious and used "Tour De France" by Kraftwerk one year.
