Sharing beer and Champagne with teammates, Chris Froome celebrated his third Tour de France title in four years on Sunday.
The Kenyan-born British rider finished safely at the back of the main pack during the final stage, arm-in-arm with his teammates during the mostly ceremonial final stage ending on the Champs-Elysees.
Andre Greipel of Germany won the 21st leg.
At the start of the stage, Froome dropped back to his Team Sky car to collect bottles of beer and distributed them to each of his eight teammates for a celebratory round.
Then it was time for the traditional flute of Champagne.
Froome rode a yellow bike to go with his yellow jersey, helmet, gloves and shoes. His teammates had yellow stripes on their jerseys and yellow handlebars on their bikes.
