    There's a time trial from Monteux to Sorgues. Maybe that's what you're thinking of.

    No Ventoux in the Dauphine.

    One of my friends said this to me the other day and I just took his word for it. Perhaps he made the same mistake.

    My friend probably thought that now I think about it. He was talking about the Ventoux in a way that sounded a bit like the Alpe

    The summit finish to Risoul should be great, it's very scenic there.

    Is the dauphine going to be in proper HD on Eurosport? Just got Sky+ HD and really liked the look of the ToC in HD, would be even better in the Alps!

    The Alpe stage is stage 6, so Saturday? There's a little football thing that day too I think?

    Although looking at the listings on the Eurosport site, it's actually Le Mans and tennis from Queens that's bumping the Dauphiné, not football. Highlights only by the look of it.

    Nope. No HD for the Dauphine.
