where can we follow the presentation?

I think that the total length will be less than 3300 km. It should start at any moment now:

How much is actual stages and how much is all surrounding bs?

 

[Netserk]

Nice, seems like we won't have to listen to Prudhomme.

 

[Max Rockatansky]

Nice, seems like we won't have to listen to Prudhomme.

We will.

It's already a parade of self-adulation within the first five minutes.

[Mayomaniac]

ASO praising all the great things that they've done for Women's cycling sounds like a propaganda video from North Korea.

 

[Netserk]

Exactly as rumoured:

The lap makes it seem like double Ventoux

The map isn't clear about the amount of locap laps

 

[Billie]

First ITT 27 km not long at all

a 248 km stage nice

Tignes stage is the same as La Rosière 2018... not good (and Saisies instead of Bisanne so even worse)

 

[zlev11]

the alps stages are a joke

[roundabout]

big load of meh, although i suppose it's good that there is a TT in week 1

 

[Billie]

Ventoux is double ascent. Once from Sault and Bedoin.

lol Prudhomme already making up excuses for the 220 km stage

 

[Netserk]

 

[Red Rick]

OH MY GOD ANDORRA IS THE LEAST HORRENDOUS OPTION​

 

[zlev11]

the ventoux stage is great

at least the non-alps mountain stages are all decent lengths.

 

[Red Rick]

OH MY GOD ANDORRA IS THE LEAST HORRENDOUS OPTION​

Apart from going over Envalira from the wrong way

 

[Netserk]

 

[Netserk]

58 km of ITT. Could have that in one stage and then a good old prologue as well. Meh.

 

[gavia88]

not even bales?

 

[RedheadDane]

Wait... what stage is the Ventoux stage? I can't find it...

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Where do you even start with the criticism? Horrible route, the one year they put a decent amount of TT is also the year that the mountains are atrocious (well, not quite 2012 or 2017 bad, but still). I get that you can't go for the hardest option on every mountain stage but they've taken a soft route for ALL OF THEM. Maybe barring the Ventoux stage.
