The presentations of the Tour de France and the Tour de France Femmes are taking place today in Paris and the reveal of the course for the women's Maillot Jaune battle is an extremely exciting one.
Starting in the homeland of the reigning winner, Demi Vollering, Rotterdam will host the Grand Depart having previously hosted the start of the Tour de France back in 2010. The day after the Olympic Games in Paris come to an end, the Tour de France Femmes gets underway in the Netherlands on Monday August 12.
The seven-day stage race starts with an expected sprint finish, from Rotterdam to The Hague. The next day there are two stages on the program. Firstly there is a morning stage taking the riders from Dordrecht to Rotterdam and in the afternoon there is an individual time-trial in the latter city.
After a trip to the Valkenburg and Liege, the race reaches it's climax on one of cycling's most infamous climbs, Alpe d'Huez. This famous climb (13.2 km at 8%) in the Alps with its 21 hairpin bends is the culmination of the queen stage of the Tour de France Femmes. It is the first time that the Tour de France for women has visited the Alps.

- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point. Maybe give them fake news just before a big race to get hormones pumping.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
