We're all familiar with a birdseye view, but now Sony wants to bring cycling fans a sheep's eye view of the action when the first leg of the Tour De France gets underway on July 5. 

The Japanese consumer electronics company has enlisted the help of five sheep from the Harewell Hall Farm in Yorkshire in the UK — the county that this year will host the opening leg of the Tour De France — and is fitting them with action cams.
