By the looks of it, neither Tuesday's nor Wednesday's stages are likely(??) to present major moves in the Top 10, but to whet your appetite for Thursday's demonic route - 200km long stage with two long, long, long climbs at 'not so steep' sandwiched around the very steep Col d'Izoard:




Km 107.0 - Col Agnel (2 744 m) - 23.7 km climb to 6.5 % - Category HC
Km 145.5 - Col d'Izoard (2 360 m) - 14.1 km climb to 7.3 % - Category HC
Km 200.5 - Col du Galibier (2 645 m) - 22.8 km climb to 4.9 % - Category HC


Vision, I hope you took another day off for Thursday! ;)

And if Thursday doesn't decide the our, they face Alpe-d’Huez on Friday w/ a mountain-top finish.

Gonna be a great week!!
