2024 Olympic Games force Tour de France Femmes into calendar change
CyclingFriday, 10 February 2023 at 03:00
The start date for the Tour de France Femmes 2024 will be different than usual as a result of the clash with the Paris Olympic games, which has forced the organisers to search for a new date which has yet to be finalised.
It was officially confirmed by Tour director Christian Prudhomme. “The riders go to the Olympics in the wake of the Tour de France, and so we have to change the date,” Prudhomme told BiciPro.
Not only has the women's edition been affected, but the men's edition of the Tour de France has also been impacted. The men's Tour will take place from June 29 to July 19, 2024, and there is speculation that the women's edition may coincide with the men's tour.
The timing of the Tour de France Femmes holds major significance for Olympic-bound riders, who need time to perform at their best, followed by adequate recovery time to get ready for the Olympic Games.

- Oh, so now you know Pog better than he knows himself? Saying that when at the same time you can see an article quoting Pog saying “sometimes I don’t know why I attack” and not ever analysing emotions as men tend to is really rather naive and reductive. Hardly worth wasting our planet’s energy and ressources for. How about elevating the discussion to think over things a bit deeper?Mistermaumau20-11-2024
- They couldn’t convict him criminally because he paid up to escape it (that weird American possibility that ensures not all are equal before the law). He was convicted civilly but technically for committing crime. I on the other hand live in a country where unexplained damage to a baby in your care in theory leads to minimum 5 years of prison, if you admit an accident it’s more lenient but telling the truth that you don’t know how a bump on the skull happened exposes you to the as much risk as some who murder and rape. The developed world doesn’t deserve that designationMistermaumau20-11-2024
- Doesn’t deserve criticism considering all he won with all the crashes plus how close he got to a TdF (Pog had luck). If Pog and Jonas battle and wipe each other out we have Remco and Primoz to put on a show.Mistermaumau20-11-2024
- Agreed. Until he can stay upright on his bike, he’s at best an incomplete for a grade. That doesn’t mean that on his best form he can’t win it all. We just haven’t seen it.mij20-11-2024

- After the Cian Saga, all contracts should have a release clause or at least a legal framework for contract breaking. this is getting ridiculous.abstractengineer20-11-2024
- Other than Pog, the other leaders are beatable and They contributed 56 wins. But when team strategy is to pit best leaders against Pog and so-so leaders against Hirschi, Yates, Mcnulty, that team is going to lose everything.abstractengineer20-11-2024
