Rotterdam – La Haye 123 km
After a brief olympic break the Tour de France is back with Act II for the women. Just as for the men the course is adjusted to fit Paris2024 with a Grand Depart and finish in the Netherlands (Rotterdam to Alpe d’Huez, the Dutch mountain).
Estimated finish time: 15:30-15:50 CEST
Clog dancer of the Day: Lorena Wiebes
The Tour starts with a sprintstage in her home country and the KOM point is literally in a tunnel below sea level, there is no way Wiebes lets this one slip out of her fingers. Unless she celebrates prematurely of course but that would never happen. Not in a big race in the Netherlands anyway.
