The
Tour de France 2023 has started with a spectacular first stage starting and finishing in Bilbao. The climax will take place on the very tough Pike climb (2 km at 12%) in the final part of the race.
Already, a sea of orange has been flooding the climb since early in the morning. Many Basque fans (the orange fans of Euskaltel Euskadi) are flooding the roads at the moment, cheering on the Tour de France riders as they pass by.
