And Paris-Tours is not a tour.

And Wiggins for the Tour of Britain. Brailsford says it's his home race. Isn't it Froome's home race, too?

No. That would be the Tour of Kenya

The Giro of 2013 never went south of the middle but only a semantic pedant wouldn't have classed it as a tour.

Paris-Nice is a one week long race but it doesn't tour anything, so is not a Tour. Happy?
