Description:
Get your climbing legs on for three stunning stages in the Alps; Stage 10 combines new and old, excitement and Tour history. Stage 11 is short and sweet (and a little bit savage). And both prepare you for stage 12 stage which has three of the Alp’s toughest mountains laid out for you on a plate: cols de la Madeleine, Croix de Fer and Alpe d’Huez give you over 5400m of fantastic climbing and descending in one, glorious day on a bike.
Emily Says: This will offer immediate thrills as well as very special memories. A brilliant Loop.
Sarah Says: Stage 10 is the Etape du Tour but why do one stage when you can do three?
