From the 18th to the 22nd of September the peloton will tackle the Tour de Luxembourg. The five-day stage-race in the small central European nation features plenty explosive stages which will serve as perfect preparation for the World Championships. We preview stage 5.
The final stage of the race sees the riders return to Luxembourg. It's a day where dangerous attacks can come right from the start taking into consideration that it's the final day of racing and last opportunity to do damage in the overall classification.
In the 177 kilometers there are 3100 meters of climbing and this will prove to be a tough challenge for anyone to control the race. There will then be a three-lap final circuit with an 800-meter ramp at 5.7% and finally a 800-meter ramp at 9.2% that ends almost in sight of the line.
Stage 5: Mersch - Luxembourg (Limpertsbeg), 177.7 kilometers
