Inside the Tour - Marginalizing the Tourmalet?
The peloton faces two categorized climbs in the Tour’s final day in the Pyrénées – the perennial gauntlets of the Col d’Aspin and Col du Tourmalet. The climbs come early on the day, however, and leave 62km to the first finish in Tarbes since 1951. With such a long run-in on the eve of the Tour’s first rest day, the stage could see a successful breakaway arrive in Tarbes ahead of a larger group of overall contenders.
