Fettled to be off to Brussels tomorrow to ride Stage 1 of the Tdf on Saturday. Doubt it will be all the actual course as we will ride minor roads where the TdF will have closed main roads but it should be most of the main parts of Stage 1. The two cobbled climbs are about 50 Km in so won’t feature much for TdF except maybe to let a breakaway get away. Looks like being hot, hot, hot but as it’s a charity ride we will likely have at least a couple of cafe breaks along the way! https://ridewithgps.com/routes/30191253… Read more »
Haha, that’s a good one.
