Tour de France Route: Stage 8
Stage 8 – Saturday 6 July
The
first real mountain stage of the Tour and the first summit finish. The
stage is a tease, designed to give us a glimpse of rider form but
without setting the overall classification for the next two weeks. The
Port de Pailhères is a tough climb, some 15km at 8% but with regular
sections at 10% or more. We can expect a break to go but only after a
long fight at the start because the HC-rated climb offers the mountains
jersey. The GC contenders get their showdown on the climb to Ax, a
relatively short summit finish with irregular ramps that will chop out
any wooden legs.
