Finishing in Nice!?

Olympics in Paris in the way. They announced the finish point a while ago.

Hmmm final day TT?

Not sure about that. From a GC perspective it could be a great move but not finishing with a sprint and a PR day feels a bit odd.

The Nice stages are  classic Paris-Nice territory and almost always provide great racing. I'm looking forward to it.

Quick run down of all the stages, some with profile info. The exact route including intermediate towns is normally released early in the new year.

I understand the perceived need to take cycling to new audiences by starting Tour abroad, but Italy?

Yep, Italy. Like Spain this year, or Denmark last year. Makes sense to lighten the logistics given the Olympics will be on at the same time, and it's not far away for the teams, crews and spectators. Or am I missing something else?

The route looks brutal; good luck to Cav!

I've had my flights and flat in Nice booked for a few weeks - very much looking forward to it!
