Good luck picking a GC winner for this :shock: That is of course, presuming the race even goes ahead.

Anyway, the "Race to the Sun" - starts Sunday, 8 stages made up of a prologue, 3 flat stages, 2 medium mountain stages and 2 high mountain stages including a summit finish at Station du Mont Serein Mont Ventoux.

Full stage details here:

http://www.letour.fr/2008/PNC/COURSE/us ... cours.html

Obviously the start list is a little problematic atm, but there's an incomplete one here:

And another even more incomplete one here:

So you might want to wait a while before choosing your GC rider.

    It's a little like wrestling a gorilla. You don't quit when you're tired. You quit when the gorilla is tired.

    Although Mr McQuaid has threatened to ban me from cycling to work, I'm willing to cross the line as an early yellow jersey is within reach.
