French torchbearers will be encircled by several hundred officers, some in riot police vehicles and on motorcycles, others on rollerblades and on foot. Chinese torch escorts will immediately surround the torchbearer, with Paris police on rollerblades moving around them. French firefighters in jogging shoes will encircle the officers on rollerblades while motorcycle police will form the outer layer of security I had to check the source because this sounded so much like a joke.

It is a joke. How much is this going to cost the French? Several hundred officers? Riot police in vehilces, on foot, on motorcycles, and rollerblades? Multiple layers of security? For a torch? Sheesh, sports fans, this is nuts.
