He? The sponsors? Or the UCI?
Anyway, yeah, they definitely saved #100 for the TdF.

But once #100 is deemed to happen at the TdF, I don't think they care that much for it to be on an iconic climb.

I mean, what he is going to do?
Not win the ITT (even though Remco and others a way bigger favorites, there) or a hilly stage, only because they wouldn't be as iconic as it would be winning #100 on, let's say, Mont Ventoux?
I think he would probably like to win number 100 in the rainbow stripes before he gets the yellow jersey although either would be an iconic shot.

The problem is ime the moment you start mucking around with oh this would be the best stage to win stuff for the media exposure etc etc etc, the race kicks you back hard, you can't plan this stuff, you have to go with the moment when it happens naturally, (see Cav). We all know he'll win #100, so it really doesn't matter when it happens because not all 99 other wins were necessarily that epic anyway
