The Grand Depart this year will be based in Belgium as a tribute to Eddie Merckx who won the first of his Tours de France 50 years ago in 1969. That year he also won the mountains and points classifications (oh and the Tour of Flanders and the Liège-Bastonge-Liège as well). Stage 1 is an interesting stage with some 'murs', including the steep Mur d...
A team time trial with lots of false flats. Expect lots of photos with the famous Atonuim building in the background acting as the finish line. First team departs at around 3 to 3:30pm from Place Royale. The caravan should leave around 1pm.
A long but relatively gentle welcome awaits the riders on the French side of the border, with a succession of punchy climbs coming in the latter half of the stage. The Côte de Mutigny could be ideal for a cheeky shot at glory.
Anyone for Champagne? It may be too early in the race for bubbles in the peloton but there's nothing to say the rest of us can't indulge. Reims is the gateway to France's famous Champagne region, and it's also home to a fast-growing network of leisure bike routes. The pros won't be seeing any of that as they whizz towards Nancy, where a sprint shou...
The Vosges are one of the least-cycled mountain areas of France, but people who ride here do so for good reason: the roads are relatively empty and the scenery is stunning. The glorious Haut-Koenigsbourg chateau is just one of the treats on offer today in the Alsace, where the riders will start warming their legs up for the first 'proper' climbs of...
La Planche des Belles Filles is an old Tour de France favourite and it's always a popular place to watch. But it's not the only climb on the cards for today: the Markstein, the Ballon d’Alsace and the Col des Chevrèresall come before the showcase climb of the day. This will be a tough day for any stragglers already struggling to make the time cuts.
This is the longest stage of the 2019 Tour de France, and it has an artistic theme. The route passes through Ornans, where the French painter Gustave Courbet was born in 1819. The passage of the Tour marks 200 years since his birth, and will give a nod to the 19th century Realism art movement. It should all end in a sprint finish near the banks of ...
Another hilly stage, this time through the vineyards of the Burgundy region. There is a quick succession of smaller categorised climbs en route to Saint-Etienne. In total there is 3,800 metres of climbing in the 199km.
A lumpy stage that could see an exciting breakaway, this stage stretched from this Loire and into the Auvergne.
A mostly flat stage as the Tour enters the Pyrenees, starting in the wonderful Tarn department, which is a proper treat for cyclists, as is Albi – for cyclists and tourists alike.
