The 2019 Tour de France
The 2019 Tour de France starts in Brussels on the 6 July and will cover 3,460km of riding in 21 stages, ending in Paris on 28 July.
The 106th edition of the race is definitely for the climbers. It includes seven mountain stages with five summit finishes (La Planche des Belles Filles, Tourmalet, Foix Prat d’Albis, Tignes, Val Thorens) and five hilly stages, as well as an individual time trial, team time trial, and seven flat stages for the sprinters.
This year’s Grand Départ will see the Tour start in Brussels for the first time since 1958, with a 192km flat route in honour of the country’s sprinting prowess. The first week will end on the steep and partly unpaved summit of La Planche des Belles Filles, before continuing into the Pyrenees in the second week, and the Alps in the third.
