Carcassonne to Bagneres-de-Luchon
Tuesday, July 22nd / 237.5 km /
Following the race's second rest day, the Tour marches into the Pyrenees for three tough stages. Up first, the marathon 237.5km grind from Carcassonne to Bagneres-de-Luchon. Look for riders to spend upwards of six hours in the saddle during what's the race's longest stage. After 150 kilometers of spinning on the flats, the bunch will face the cat. 2 Col de Portet-d'Aspet, cat. 3 Col des Ares, and finally the hors categorie Port de Bales, a 11.7km gut-punch with an average grade of 7.7%. From the summit it's all downhill to the finish, so whoever crests the climb first should be able to stay away.
Our pick: We'll tab classics man Joaquim Rodríguez of Katusha who goes up and down better than most.
