Preview stage 2. From the 15th to the 18th of June one of the final preparation races for the Tour de France takes place. It is within the French's south and Pyrenees that
La Route d'Occitanie will be race.
Stage 2 is quite a tough and tricky day. The second half of the day is mostly flat and much indicates that it could end in a sprint, however the first half is quite difficult and can see a strong group go up the road and gain enough time on the peloton. 11.9Km at 6.5%, 3.9Km at 4.7% and 4.6Km at 8.5% will be the climbs where damage can be done.
Stage 2: Cazouls-lès-Béziers - Graulhet, 181.9 kilometers
