The ” Tour de France in the Pyrenees ” sometimes called The Great Loop is a monumental sculpture by Jean-Bernard Metais and erected on the area of the Pyrenees from the A 64 motorway between Tarbes and Pau. It represents an ascent ( the Col du Tourmalet) won the yellow jersey rider to seven other riders.
